Your Guide to April Events in North County San Diego

April 9 | FKA Twigs — Del Mar

FKA twigs takes over The Sound in Del Mar with her genre-blurring blend of electronic, pop, and R&B — expect a performance that feels less like a concert and more like a full-bodied work of art.

April 10–12 | Goodguys Del Mar Nationals — Del Mar

A weekend of chrome, classics, and pure automotive nostalgia takes over the Del Mar Fairgrounds — with thousands of hot rods, custom builds, and a Sunday showcase open to all American-made machines.

COURTESY NORTH CITY

April 12 | San Marcos Spring Fling — San Marcos

A springtime street festival takes over North City — with 200+ local makers, live music across multiple stages, and enough food and drink to keep you hanging around (and happy) all day.

April 13–14 | Matisyahu — Solana Beach

Matisyahu hits Belly Up in Solana Beach with his fusion of reggae, hip-hop, and roots-driven sounds — the kind of show that still hits just as hard live as you remember.

April 16 | Taste of Leucadia — Leucadia

A tasty stroll along Highway 101 — with 20+ local bites, sips from your favorite spots, and a hop-on trolley to keep things moving (and your cup full).

April 19 | Fallbrook Avocado Festival — Fallbrook

A full-on celebration of Fallbrook’s most famous fruit takes over the village — think avocado everything, local artisans, live music, and a few delightfully random contests (yes, including guac and best-dressed avo).

COURTESY LA JOLLA CONCOURS D’ELEGANCE

April 24–26 | La Jolla Concours d’Elegance — La Jolla

A weekend of rare, vintage, and high-performance automobiles takes over La Jolla — blending world-class cars with coastal views, curated events, and a distinctly elevated crowd.

April 25 | Vandelux — La Jolla

Vandelux brings his blend of electronic, indie, and soulful textures to The Sound in Del Mar — expect a set that’s equal parts introspective and danceable (you’ll feel it before you realize you’re moving).

April 25–26 | Encinitas Spring Street Fair — Encinitas

Highway 101 transforms into a full-on springtime promenade — think local art, live music, and enough food to justify a second lap. A true Encinitas classic that brings the whole community out (and keeps you lingering a little longer than planned).
