Getting to the San Diego Symphony
Summer Pops is easy, and there are so many ways to
do it!
If
you must drive to the concert site, then follow these
directions:
– take
I-5 south, exit Front Street, drive south to
Harbor Drive, turn left, proceed to 8th Ave (just past Convention
Center), turn right, parking on your left.
On Padre Game nights, avoid Downtown traffic by proceeding
farther down I-5 to the Cesar Chavez Parkway exit. Take a right
on Cesar Chavez, proceeding SW to Harbor Drive. Turn right,
proceed to 8th Ave. (just before Convention Center), turn left,
parking on your left. Patrons coming down Hwy 163 should take
the I-5 south exit before downtown, then once on the 5, take
the Chavez exit as noted above.
– take I-5 north, take the
Cesar Chavez Parkway exit, turn left, drive SW to Harbor Drive, turn right,
proceed to 8th Ave. (just before Convention Center), turn left, parking on your left.
– take King/Hwy.94
west toward downtown. Before coming into downtown,
exit to Hwy. 15 south, and then shortly exit to I-5
north. Take the Cesar Chavez Parkway exit, turn left,
drive SW to Harbor Drive, turn right, proceed to
8th Ave. (just before Convention Center), turn left,
parking on your left.
(Please note: Except for buses, left turns will be
disallowed onto Harbor Drive after the concert, please
plan accordingly)
Before
and after every concert, there will be a fleet of
shuttle buses running patrons to and from the 8th
Avenue Parking Structure at Harbor & 8th.
Concert site dropoff and pickup for these buses is
at the same point: the NW edge of the traffic circle
adjacent to the Summer Pops patron entrance. An intermission
bus will run as needed.
Take
the Orange Line to the Convention Center stop (The
Special Event Line also stops here on Game and Special
Event Days). Cross Harbor Drive and look for the
footpath found between the Convention Center and
the Marriot Hotel. As you walk SW down the walkway
and emerge on the other side, the Summer Pops site
is towards your left just down the Embarcadero footpath.
The
Summer Pops can be accessed by the Embarcadero footpath
that, moving SE by the water, runs by the Manchester
Hyatt, Seaport Village, the Marriot Marina, and the
Convention Center. The Summer Pops site is just behind
the Convention Center by the Bay, on the Marina Park
South peninsula.
Water
taxis from Coronado (Hotel Del Coronado, Ferry Landing
Marketplace), Harbor Island, Shelter Island, the
Broadway Pier, and other locations can moor at the
landing of Joe’s Crabshack on the Marina Park
South peninsula. Call the water taxi at 619.235.8294
for more details.
Note: The Lane Field double decker
shuttle has been discontinued.
