The Heat is On

If you’re wondering where to park in Hillcrest on Saturday, April 13 for Taste of Hillcrest,  look no further than the DMV lot at 3960 Normal Street. 

The lot is free for public parking from 6:30 pm – 3 am on most nights. 

Also, there will be free shuttles running along the tour route, including a stop at the DMV lot.

Stops will be listed on your ticket.

Forget the super bloom, Euphoria presented by SDPIX at Rich's is where you'll want to blossom this month. 

This fun event always has the best sounds, the most dynamic musical guests and a great line-up of local DJs to keep you moving through the night and into the morning. 

The week started out with a scary situation at a Palm Springs LGBT bar.

Nationally, headlines blew up after actor Jussie Smollett was cleared of all charges in his fraud case. Then in entertainment news, we spoke with up-and-coming country star Cameron Hawthorn and celebrated wrinkled trans flags everywhere.

We are getting closer and closer to summer and that means the White Party in Palm Springs is almost upon us. This week SDPIX and Rich's is preparing you for this spectacular event and giving you the chance to win tickets in the process. Also Spring has sprung at the Porto Vista Hotel as they celebrate the season with a party of their own. 

The Hillcrest Farmers Market isn't just one of San Diego's most popular events that happens every Sunday, it's also a relaxing community event where people shop for a variety of things including locally-grown produce and handmade gifts. 

With over 175 vendors to choose from shoppers can find everything from fresh vegetables to flowers to arts and crafts.

The Porto Vista Hotel and SDPIX's Top of the Bay will be throwing its Spring Fling party this Friday, March 29, during their Last Friday celebration.

Taste of Hillcrest has become one of the most anticipated events in the community every year. 

Hundreds fill the streets to sample the neighborhood's best cultural foods, meet business owners and enjoy a wonderful walking tour of the historic district all at once. 

And now for a limited time, you can save on your ticket.

Some local controversy in the San Diego Unified School District tops the news this week with accusations coming from a man who says District B trustee Kevin Beiser sexually assaulted him. Also, check your calendar and fill in any empty spots with things from this week's "Out & About." Also get your tickets for the upcoming Taste of Hillcrest. Plus so much more in this week's Wrap. 

It's that time again when we give you all the details about everything that's going on in the community to get you off the couch and "Out & About."

First, there is the debut of the Mr. Flicks contest which for one lucky man means not only an awesome title but some great prizes.
