About “A Day at the Park”
The “A Day at the Park” event series is sponsored under the Port of San Diego’s Tidelands Activation Program (TAP) in the Expanded Access Events category, which aims to improve public access to under-activated Port parks via a Port-funded and Port-branded community event. TAP is an annual grant program that sponsors large and small events that engage the community and inspire visitors to enjoy San Diego Bay.
About the Chula Vista Bayfront
Chula Vista Bayfront Park is one of four public parks on the Chula Vista Bayfront. The three other parks include the brand-new, 39-acre Sweetwater Park, Bayside/Harbor Park (Bayside Park is doubling in size and will become known as Harbor Park), and Marina View Park. The new Sweetwater Park and Bayside/Harbor Park are part of the 535-acre Chula Vista Bayfront redevelopment. In partnership with the City of Chula Vista, the Port of San Diego is transforming the Chula Vista Bayfront into a world-class destination in the South Bay for residents and coastal visitors to enjoy. The first phase of the Chula Vista Bayfront redevelopment includes Sweetwater Park, the newly opened Gaylord Pacific Resort & Convention Center, the Sun Outdoors San Diego Bay RV Resort, and the Bayside-to-Harbor Park expansion.
