Bonjour! Francophiles have a place to gather this San Diego weekend, as do fans of two long-running film franchises. And if you like your music in the great outdoors, we’re at the peak of the summer outdoor concert season.
Wave the red, white and bleu – yes, we mean the Tricolore, not the Stars and Stripes – in La Jolla Village to celebrate Bastille Day and La Jolla’s connections to French art, fashion, music and more. The event, part of La Jolla Art Walk, features free admission to the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (with online pre-registration), a fashion showcase by Fashion Week San Diego and French-inspired music and specialties from local businesses. Grab a map in La Jolla Village and start strolling at 4 p.m. Friday.
Can’t wait for July 24? Or didn’t get a badge and need another way to satisfy your Comic-Con jones? The Comic-Con Museum hosts Summer Nights, when the venue stays open later, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, while offering food and drink specials for dedicated comics and pop culture fans.
One fellow well known to those fans, name of Clark, with a most impressive alter ego … yes, it’s time for another Superman re-boot. Head to AMC Court at the Mission Valley shopping center for a 5 p.m. premiere party Friday. Enjoy live music, pose with Superman and Supergirl, even try your hand at arm wrestling with the big fella. And oh yeah, the movie – it’s playing at the Mission Valley cineplex, plus two others nearby.
