Presidio Twilight

Updated 4/13/2021
To align with guidance from public health agencies, we’re canceling the 2021 season of Presidio Picnic and Presidio Twilight. We’re now planning for how we can safely come together in the near future to celebrate the food and culture of the San Francisco Bay Area and the beauty of the Presidio.

Stay connected with Presidio news by visiting www.presidio.gov or joining our mailing list.

We also invite you to view Off the Grid creators who are offering takeout and/or delivery options in the Bay Area.

​​​​​​​​​​​​​About Presidio Twilight

Cancelled for 2021 Season: San Francisco's largest campfire features a delicious selection of international cuisine from a stellar lineup of local vendors (see below for a partial list). This event is a great way to kick off your weekend – so grab your blanket, bundle up, and enjoy fire-pits on the lawn, yoga at dusk, live music under the stars, and the Presidio's unbeatable views. Presidio Twilight is presented by the Presidio Trust in partnership with Off the Grid Markets.

Make a Day of it at the Presidio…and Top it off at Presidio Twilight

Come to the Presidio early and experience all the park has to offer:

• Check out the Presidio Visitor Center for a topographical map, videos, exhibits, and a gift store
• Take a walk on 24-miles of trails, and take a break to enjoy the views at one of eight scenic overlooks
• View installations by world-renowned place-based artist Andy Goldsworthy
• See extraordinary exhibits about history and culture at the Presidio Officers' Club, our museum and cultural center

Sustainability Efforts

Presidio Twilight is hosted with sustainability in mind. All containers provided by food vendors are compostable, no plastic straws or water bottles are sold, and participants are encouraged to follow the "leave no trace" ethos – including accessing the park without a car. Try our free natural gas PresidiGo Downtown Shuttle, or take MUNI 43 right to the event. And with 24 miles of trails and bikeways, there are plenty of alternative ways to get to the park. Visit our Transportation page for more details.
