The largest contemporary art show in San Diego returns for a four-day run this September 28 through October 1. Art San Diego features more than 60 international galleries with 15,000 attendees annually during its limited engagement, and this year the event moves from its longtime home in Balboa Park to a larger venue - the scenic Wyland Center at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. We are offering our readers 2-for-1 tickets and also raffling off 2 all-access Collector's Passes.


Art San Diego 2017 will feature 60 galleries and studio artists from around the world, showcasing over 500 artists and their paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, photographs, videos and cutting-edge multimedia artworks. The show, renowned in the art world for its museum exhibitions, special events, themed-art projects and inspiring art talks, is owned by Redwood Media Group, which also owns and operates fine art shows Artexpo New York, Spectrum Miami, Art Santa Fe, and Red Dot Miami.

"Moving Art San Diego to Del Mar gives us space to expand our exhibits, showcase larger installations and opens up exciting new creative possibilities," said Eric Smith, president and CEO of Redwood Media Group. "We have an amazing 30,000 square-foot space with outdoor plazas and convenient ample parking. This allows us to enhance our exhibits while providing guests with a high-end experience."
