Into the Horizon San Diego Music Festival Guide 2025

The organizers of the Into the Horizon Festival have made sure you’re fully taken care of when it comes to food, parking, and more.

How Do I Get to the Into The Horizon San Diego Festival 2025?

Waterfront Park is located at 1600 Pacific Hwy, San Diego, CA 92101. The main entrance to the festival is on Ash Street near the corner with Harbor Drive with VIP ticket holders having a special entrance off of Pacific Highway.

The trolley line is available with the MTS Trolley Blue or Green line being your best bet. The nearest station to the festival entrance gates is the County Center/Little Italy Station.

If you take an Uber or Lyft, there is a convenient drop-off location on Pacific Highway Drive between Grape and Cedar. This is just a short 3-minute walk to the Ash Street entrance.

Where Can I Park?

There is no parking available directly at the venue, but there are plenty of parking lots nearby. For detailed options, you can check out the festival’s parking page.

What Food is Available at the Festival?

You won’t go hungry because there is a variety of food vendors onsite, including vegan options, and mocktails!

The festival is also providing complimentary water, up to 1,500 gallons each day. Bring your hydro flask or small water bottle (up to 20 oz.) to fill up.

ADA Accessibility

The festival is very ADA-accessible. Check out the ADA information page for all the details.

While service dogs are allowed, the music volume and crowd size can make it difficult for our four-legged friends. Note that emotional support animals are not allowed for guests.

The Into the Horizon festival is strictly a 21 and over event. You’ll have to show a valid ID to get in.
