Neighborhood 311

Dear Golden Gate Park Neighbor,

Another Planet Entertainment and Superfly, in association with San Francisco’s Recreation and Park

Department and the City of San Francisco are producing the following concerts in Golden Gate Park:

18th Annual Outside Lands Aug 7 - 9

As a local company, we are invested in our city, and we care a great deal about Golden Gate Park and the surrounding communities. In our first 17 years, we’ve contributed $52 million to San Francisco’s Recreation & Parks Department to maintain and help preserve the most beautiful urban park system in the country. These events have generated over $1.3 billion in economic impact to the local economy of San Francisco. Additionally, we recognize our event’s impact on the neighborhood, and work hard to mitigate that effect.

We work closely with all city agencies, especially the SF Recreation and Parks Department, SFPD, SFFD, SFMTA, and SFDPH to produce safe, healthy, smooth, and successful events for the city of San Francisco.

If you have any inquiries BEFORE THE FESTIVAL begins related to road and meadow closures or other general concerns, please send an email to community@sfoutsidelands.com.

Community Hotline: (415) 965-8001

The Community Hotline will be sta ed to respond to any issues during the following dates and times:

Thursday, August 6 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.

Friday, August 7 – Sunday, August 9 (festival days) 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 p.m.

Parking and Alternative Means of Transportation:

To alleviate vehicle congestion in your neighborhood, we strongly encourage patrons to take alternative means of transportation to the festival, including MUNI, private shuttles, biking, or walking.

During event days, we will have dedicated tow trucks and Parking Control Officers on each side of the Park to quickly respond to blocked driveways or any other parking issues related to the festival. SF Rec & Parks has printed signs alerting attendees to not block driveways. More copies of this notice may be obtained at the front desk of SFPD Richmond Station (461 6th Avenue). If you need to have a vehicle towed, please call 311.

Note from SFMTA Regarding Blocking your Own Driveway:

SFMTA rules allow residents to park parallel to the curb and block their own driveway, provided that (1) the vehicle's license plate is registered to the building's address, and (2) the building has no more than two dwelling units. Buildings with three or more units may not block the driveway, even with a vehicle registered to that address.

As of late 2025, residents may now park up to two operable vehicles in their front yard driveway or setback without requiring screens or fences. Boats, trailers, and inoperable vehicles are still not permitted.

During the festival, SFMTA will enforce blocked driveways on a complaint basis only, giving residents a better cushion. Please note that no portion of a vehicle may ever extend over the sidewalk.
