Cambodia Day Entrance Information:

We are excited to welcome you to Cambodia Day on September 28, 2024, at Union Square Plaza in San Francisco!

  • Doors Open: 9:15 AM
  • Show: 10:00 AM – 8:30 PM

Free and Open Event: Cambodia Day is a free event, and there will be no ticketing because it is held outdoors at Union Square Plaza, a public park.

First Come, First Serve: Entrance is on a first-come, first-served basis and is subject to capacity. This means that once the park reaches its maximum allowed number of attendees, no additional people will be admitted, so we recommend arriving early to secure your spot.

RSVP Encouraged: We highly encourage everyone to RSVP. This helps us estimate the number of attendees and allows us to send you important event updates. To make our count accurate, we ask that there be no more than 2 people per RSVP unless they are children without an email.

RSVP Benefits: All who RSVP will receive event update emails and be entered into a draw to win 2-4 preferred viewing/reserved tickets.

Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
