“SOMA Nights” 2026: Neighborhood Block Party + Night Market (SF)

SOMA Nights

SOMA Nights returns in 2026, bringing a monthly street party to San Francisco’s Folsom Street (6th–12th) on the fourth Thursday of each month, from April 23 through September 24, 2026.

This free, high-energy event spotlights the neighborhood’s creative spirit with local food, pop-up vendors, art, music, and unexpected performances from pole dancers to doggy flautists.

Each month, more than 20 businesses along the Folsom Corridor join in with specials, activations, and unique experiences that reflect the character of SOMA. Expect DJs, carnival-style games, and plenty of offbeat moments in one of the city’s most eclectic neighborhoods.

Show up, explore, and support the small businesses and artists that keep SOMA’s culture alive.
