Multicultural Events
The San Diego region enjoys a rich multicultural tapestry. The historic murals in Chicano Park and Balboa Park, Malcolm X Library in East San Diego, Martin Luther King Promenade and Chinese Historic District in downtown San Diego are just a few examples of the multicultural tributes throughout the county.
San Diegans take great pride in preserving their heritage and culture. Festivals, neighborhoods, theaters, museums and dining opportunities reflect diverse cultures and lifestyles. Come join our multicultural celebrations. You’ ll find that San Diego’ s warmth comes not only from its sunny weather, but also its friendly people. This open-arms policy has helped make our city one of America’ s most desirable places to live.
We extend a warm welcome to you and your delegates to experience the diversity that makes San Diego a leading multicultural meetings and tourism destination.
