Golden Dildeauxs – Voting Countdown!
SOMA Nights
SOMA NIGHTS
The Businesses and Neighbors of SOMA are now launching SOMA NIGHTS! This Street activation will take place every 2nd & 4th Thursday of the month, with an exciting line up of local activities. Join us for regular monthly art, food and cultural events on Folsom St (Between 6th-12th).
The “soft launch” was March 13, and Michael Rotella, owner of Rocco’s Cafe, was pleased: “We had good attendance and the businesses saw a 15-30% lift in sales. Some locations saw a 80% increase in sales. Many residents said SOMA felt busy and had the energy of pre-COVID days.”
The next SOMA NIGHT will be April 10, with over 20 business participating, plus outdoor activations with music and vendors. Visit soma-nights.com/ for the latest updates.
SOMA Nights aims to foster a sense of community by connecting residents and local businesses during the Folsom Streetscape Project, which is putting multiple legacy businesses at risk of closing
Our monthly events encourage collaboration and creativity bringing together local businesses who have operated in SOMA for the past 3 decades who need local support to survive through the major street construction.
This is an inclusive event for all ages and backgrounds. Walk the Folsom corridor and visit any other restaurants, bars, clubs, art galleries, studios paired with street pop up events
SPECIAL FOOD, DRINKS AND EVENTS START FROM 5P-9PM BETWEEN 6TH-8TH STREET CORRIDOR OF FOLSOM
CONTINUE THE PARTY AFTER 9PM-2AM AT OVER 15 CLUBS ON THE 9TH-12TH STREET CORRIDOR OF FOLSOM ST
JOIN US EVERY SECOND & FOURTH THURSDAY OF THE MONTH
