Outdoor Festivals in San Francisco

Every city in the nation has its own flavor of outdoor festivals, most of them music and food related and held only in the summer months. But there’s a lot more to community events and festivals than just singers and funnel cake: San Francisco outdoor festivals include such gargantuan affairs as antique car shows, treasure hunts, hot air balloon and wine festivals, and even the occasional bake-off where the city’s best maestros of the kitchen face off with their unique family recipes.
