Location

Local Attractions

Golden Gate Bridge

Historical landmark
The Golden Gate Bridge, easily identified by its International Orange color and once called “the bridge that couldn’t be built,” is now one of the seven wonders of the modern world. Groups will enjoy the walkability and views offered by this world-class attraction. Drive, bike, or walk across its 1.7-mile span and enjoy the panoramic views of the sparkling strait connecting San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean. Take photos, make memories, and don’t forget to say “hi” to Karl the Fog!

Alcatraz Island

Historical landmark
Formerly a prison and now a park, Alcatraz is San Francisco’s most popular attraction—especially for groups. Book a ferry ride to the island, which includes a tour of the cell house, where your attendees can see how the prisoners lived. The island is full of American, Indigenous, and natural history to explore, and is a bucket-list item your attendees can check off while they’re here.

Cable Cars

Historical landmark
Tony Bennett once sang about the little cable cars climbing halfway to the stars, but did you know they’d been climbing those hills long before he stepped up to the mic? It’s true! First put into service by inventor Andrew S. Hallidie in 1873, San Francisco’s cable cars offer a fun and fascinating peek into the past while you travel through the city of the future. Groups can get around downtown with ease in these iconic cars and make memories while they traverse the city (and its infamous hills!).

Oracle Park

Oracle Park

Park
While your group is here, there’s nothing like watching the San Francisco Giants play at Oracle Park. Whether you are a hard-core baseball fan or just in it for the experience, there’s an energy and excitement that groups of all types and sizes will appreciate here. Located in San Francisco’s SoMa district along the water, the park boasts a prime location that can be accessed via Muni, rideshare/car, or the Golden Gate Ferry. With multiple in-stadium venues, planners can book spaces, such as luxury suites, clubhouses, and lounges. Attendees will also enjoy the food, from ballpark classics to trendy offerings, and the iconic statues of the most famous players in Giants history around the ballpark.

Alamo Square and the Painted Ladies

Recreation
One of the most photographed locations in San Francisco, Alamo Square’s famous “postcard row” is indeed a visual treat. A tight, escalating formation of Victorian houses is backdropped by downtown skyscrapers, and the grassy square itself is an ideal midday break. One of 11 historic districts designated by the Department of City Planning, the area includes several bed-and-breakfast inns.

Castro District

Business district
Steep streets and brightly painted Victorian houses give this upper Market St. “Gay Mecca” that distinct, San Francisco look. The Castro is filled with imaginative boutiques, bookstores and bars. Built in 1922, the Castro Theatre, 429 Castro St., survives as one of the last grand movie palaces. The San Francisco Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community Center, 1800 Market St., houses dozens of community organizations. Also of note are Harvey Milk Plaza, dedicated to one of the first openly gay elected officials in the United States, and Pink Triangle Park, a memorial to 15,000 LGBT Holocaust victims. Each June the SF Pride Parade draws 500,000 participants and spectators. The Castro Street Fair unfolds each October.

Chinatown

Business district
San Francisco’s Chinatown is one of the largest outside Asia, offering an array of exotic shops, restaurants, food markets, temples, museums and venerable Chinese institutions. Language here is mostly Cantonese and Mandarin; pagoda-style roofs and decorative balconies dominate the architecture, and street lamps are dragon-entwined. Grant Ave., the district’s main street, is a perpetual pageant during the annual Chinese New Year and Moon Festival celebrations.

Civic Center

Business district
A monumental grouping of federal, state and city structures, San Francisco’s Civic Center is the most spacious and, for many, the most impressive in the United States. The magnificently restored City Hall is crowned by a dome taller than the one on the nation’s Capitol; tours of City Hall are conducted on a regular basis. Louise M. Davies Symphony Hall, the War Memorial Veterans Building and the War Memorial Opera House are now collectively known as the San Francisco Performing Arts. SFJAZZ Center, Bill Graham Civic Auditorium — the scene of concerts and civic events — the Main Library and other civic structures are all nearby. The old Main Library has been transformed into the new Asian Art Museum.

Embarcadero

Business district
The Embarcadero stretches along the bay where miles of deep-water piers shelter ships of all flags. Here, too, at the foot of Market St., is the Ferry Building. The Ferry Building is a vibrant public space housing high-end retailers, a food hall, restaurants and a farmers’ market. The Ferry Building is also the terminal for ferries to Marin County, Vallejo, Oakland and Alameda. Promenades extend along The Embarcadero from the Ferry Building, past the base of the Oakland Bay Bridge to the South Beach area near King Street.

Haight-Ashbury

Business district
The “Summer of Love” lives on mainly in stores: vintage clothing, books and records are abundant along Haight St., the neighborhood’s busiest stretch. Places of interest include 710 Ashbury St., once home to the legendary band The Grateful Dead; 112 Lyon St., where famous singer Janis Joplin lived; Buena Vista Park, with its views of The city; and, for architectural highlights, Masonic Ave., Piedmont and Delmar Sts.

Japantown

Business district
Visitors to San Francisco can take in Japan without a passport. The shortcut is only 1.1 miles (1.8 km) west of downtown. Celebrating its centennial in 2006, Nihonmachi, as Japantown is known to San Francisco’s more than 12,000 citizens of Japanese descent, is one of only three in the United States. The Japan Center is a five-acre complex of shops, restaurants and sushi bars, movie theaters, art galleries, Japanese baths, a major bookstore and Peace Plaza. New People on Post St. offers the latest films, including anime, art, fashion and retail brands from Japan. The plaza, crowned by a five-tier pagoda, is the main setting for such renowned celebrations as Northern California’s annual Cherry Blossom Festival (April), Nihonmachi Street Fair (Aug.) and several smaller festivals.

Presidio of San Francisco

Park
Founded in 1776, the Presidio served as a military garrison under the flags of Spain, Mexico and the United States before it became a national park in 1994. Its long history is reflected in many places: 17th-century cannons, a diversity of architectural styles and a forest planted beginning in the 1880s. Within the boundaries of this 1,480-acre (599 hectares) preserve are The Walt Disney Family Museum, Main Post, the Officers’ Club, San Francisco National Military Cemetery, Fort Point and the Herbst International Exhibition Hall.
