Local Happenings
Del Mar Thoroughbred Club
San Diego horse racing takes place where the "turf meets the surf" at the Del Mar Racetrack. Fans flock to the track each summer to wager on their favorite horses during the popular, annual Del Mar Racetrack racing season, mid-July - early-September. Be part of the magic and nostalgia of this long-time horse race tradition dating back to 1937 when Bing Crosby greeted the first guests, and Seabiscuit won by a nose in the infamous race in 1938. This season features the nation's top racehorses, trainers and jockeys, and plenty of fun in the sun.

Del Mar Summer Twilight Concerts
In 1982, with Del Mar Foundation in its infancy, Mayor Lou Terrell, in his role as a founding director of DMF, began working with an enthusiastic group of volunteers to plan the first-ever Summer Twilight Concerts. They were ambitious enough to plan six concerts (and build a stage!) for the inaugural Summer 1983 season – held in Seagrove Park because Powerhouse Park didn’t yet exist. Now, more than four decades later, DMF is proud that the series created by our founders still brings families, friends and neighbors together to picnic, enjoy music, and take in our trademark ocean views and sunsets. We invite you to get your dancing shoes (or flip-flops) ready for four spectacular concerts this summer.
