roundup

Looking for the best things to do in San Francisco and the Bay Area this weekend? Here are some family-friendly events and activities to add to your list.

August is almost over, and school is underway. With summer wrapping up, have a little Bay Area fun this weekend before fully reverting to back-to-school routines.  

Arts and culture take hold of the Bay this weekend. Let the creativity flow at the Palo Alto Festival of the Arts, a two-day event featuring street painters, local vendors, and a kid art studio for your budding artist. Pack a picnic and spend the day at Drake's beach while you watch locals build giant sculptures and compete for the top spot in sand art at their Annual Sand Sculpture Contest. Or get a dose of culture at the 12th Annual Lebanese Festival with music, food, and fun for the whole family. 

Close out the last weekend of August at Civic Center with a four-day carnival full of food, games, and amusement rides like the 100-ft. super slide! 

There's still time to enjoy summer with the best beaches in the Bay Area, awesome family-friendly urban hikes in San Francisco, and more adventure to discover in our Ultimate San Francisco Kids Summer Vacation Guide
