Summer “Now Festival” 2018 | June 22-24
Come on out June 22-24, 2018 to co-create the best possible version of the panhandle community for one extraordinary week as the NOW Summer Festival takes over the neighborhoods around San Francisco’s iconic Panhandle (plus a few others all over the city).
Join in for free events like build-your-own-boat race, flowers crowns, and their always popular bonfire at Ocean Beach. Most of the events are free, however, some events ask for donations or have a low cover.
The Panhandle Kubb Mini-Tournament returns for a third time at Now! Festival.
Kubb is an ancient Viking lawn game that crossed the seas to flourish in SF. It’s that game with the blocks and the batons you’ve seen people playing at the park.
Their version of a Kubb Tournament, fitting the location, is far more like Bay to Breakers than Iron Man:
- no experience necessary
- low fitness level required
- costume optional
- announcers that explain the game and lovingly heckle you
- meet random people, bond over triumph and defeat. (ok, that’s unique to Kubb)
To get a pre-primer on the rules of Kubb, check out this video (don’t worry – all the rules will be explained at the start of the event.)
