    • Attending an Organ Concert

    The Spreckels Organ is located in the heart of San Diego’s Balboa Park. Click here to see a map.

    Concerts are held every Sunday at 2 p.m. (for one hour) and on Monday evenings in summer (7:30 to 9:30 p.m.). No tickets are issued to concerts, because all concerts are free and open to the public.

    Seating is outdoors in the Organ Pavilion, on metal benches that seat up to 2,500 people. Blankets, seat cushions, shade hats, or sun umbrellas can enhance your concert experience. While the Pavilion fills to capacity for Monday evening concerts in summer, you will find ample room to sit at any Sunday concert.

    Music-loving pets are welcome, and so are picnics.

    Parking is located immediately south of the Organ Pavilion, further south near the Hall of Champions, or across Park Boulevard at Inspiration Point (served by free city tram service).

    Private use of the Organ Pavilion can be arranged by contacting the San Diego Parks & Recreation Permit Center.
