Three years is a long time to wait due to the pandemic, but San Francisco magazine’s legendary Best of the Bay party is back this year at the historic and gorgeous Ferry Building.

On Thursday, August 25, from 7-10 pm, guests can expect the party of the summer, with incredible food and drink, live entertainment and a setting like no other.

Here’s where you can get your tickets now to this exclusive night of fun that showcases the best of San Francisco.

“Since COVID threw a wrench into our big annual bash for the past three years, we wanted to come back stronger than ever,” says San Francisco magazine publisher, Autumn O’Keefe. “From incredible food, wine and cocktails to exceptional entertainment, this event truly showcases the best of the region. It’s the perfect way to end the summer. We’re so pleased with the lineup, and I know our guests will love what they see, taste and explore.”

Among the many culinary highlights, award-winning chef Charles Phan is bringing in his beloved Slanted Door, which has been the anchor of the Ferry Building for years and closed during the pandemic. The restaurant’s renovation will be final soon, so Phan is offering exclusive tastes of what’s coming—all for Best of the Bay guests.

Foodwise, the local organization that, for 30 years, has operated world-class farmers markets and education programs to connect the Bay Area community with fresh, local food and sustainable family farms, is the Best of the Bay’s beneficiary.

If that hasn't convinced you, San Francisco magazine is now offering 20% off all tickets—simply use code SFMAGFRIENDS20 when checking out!
