Event Details
In 2005, after traveling the world, SWITCHFOOT dreamed up an idea to give back to their hometown that supported them as surfers and musicians, to rally their great community and to invest in kids who might need a hand up. Over a decade later, their idea has grown into two iconic San Diego events – BRO-AM’s Benefit Party and Beach Fest. The Bro-Am Foundation has raised over $2.5 million for our local youth beneficiaries.

Dive into fun, music, and giving at Beach Fest 2024!
This FREE, all-ages event returns with a tidal wave of excitement for the whole family. Join 15,000+ beach lovers for a day packed with:
Epic live music: Grammy Award-winners SWITCHFOOT headline an epic beach concert with special guests and local musical artists.
Surf's up! Watch top athletes shred the waves at Moonlight Beach. Be sure not to miss the crowd favorite contest - surf joust!
Endless fun: Explore a vibrant marketplace of local vendors, delicious food and drinks, and exciting brand activations. Don't forget to check out our green initiatives and learn how to be an ocean hero!
