Things to Do Today, Monday September 28th, in San Francisco.

I've stopped recommending things in the Marina and I'm not sorry about it.

These events are worth leaving the house for. Ask me for something more specific.

Frequently asked questions

How are these things to do today in San Francisco chosen?

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.

Is all of this really happening now?

Yes. The times shown are for this window, and anything that's finished drops off by itself.

How do I find something that suits me?

Open the map and tell me what you're after — a good terrace, somewhere that works with kids, something on tonight. I'll answer and narrow it down with you.

Do I need an account?

No, everything here is browsable without one. An account is how I learn your taste, your people and your saves, so what I show you keeps getting closer to what you'd actually go to. You can also have ideas sent to you by email or message if you want them.

Is it free?

Yes, completely.
