EDITOR’S NOTE: This show has been postponed until Oct. 18. Read more here.
The Ozzman cometh to San Diego. Again. After all, this run is called No More Tours 2. But despite the irony, the Grammy-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee will bring his “final” tour back to America’s Finest City with longtime guitarist Zakk Wylde in tow.

10.10-14: Groove Cruise
Ahoy, matey! Sick and tired of seeing your favorite DJs in a stuffy club? Here’s your chance to see them both on-board a ship, as well with an ocean view at Mexico’s Blasé Beach Club. The GROOVE CRUISE departs from, and returns to, San Diego, with one fabulous layover in Cabo San Lucas. Aboard the ship, Benny Benassi, Laidback Luke, MK, Shiba San and more will keep the party going, while Duke Dumont will host a very special event in Cabo. Time to grab your life jacket and some glow sticks!

10.12-14: Desert Daze Festival
Moving down from Joshua Tree to just up the road in Lake Perris, the annual three-day psych-fest is now easily accessible to San Diegans. And this year’s lineup is worth the short drive. Tame Impala, Warpaint, My Bloody Valentine, Ty Segall, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard are all scheduled to perform.
