There’s something about listening to live music while perched on the waterfront. This San Diego skyline icon has been compared to the Sydney Opera House because of its unique architecture, top-notch acoustics, and oceanfront locale. One of the best parts of seeing a show here is enjoying the San Diego Symphony accompany big-name artists, resulting in a beautiful harmony.
There’s no need to eat dinner before catching a show: The Rady Shell has lots of great food and drink offerings from local restaurants available. There’s even an option to have a meal curated by Top Chef contestant Richard Blais. Although you’ll be hard-pressed to find a bad seat in the house, the best experience comes with booking seats in a section that offers table service for food and drinks so you don’t have to put effort into purchasing meals, wine, beer or soda.
