San Francisco’s own backyard campfire is back for its fifth season starting Thursday, May 17! The companion event to our wildly popular Presidio PicnicoPicnic gathering on Sundays, Presidio Twilight features a diverse and delicious street food, live music, free outdoor lawn games and sunset activities all set under national park stars. Lantern-lit cabanas and fire pits underscore the “picnic at dusk” atmosphere and are available to all guests on a first come, first-served basis at no cost. Presidio Twilight is hosted by the Presidio of San Francisco in partnership with Off the Grid and runs from 5-9 pm Thursday evenings through September 20.
