The Offspring headlines the fifth year of Mission Bayfest, a family-friendly music festival with food trucks and local artisans at Mariner's Point Park.
The Offspring headline Mariner's Point Park on Sunday, October 18, as part of Mission Bayfest 2026. The festival runs from Friday, October 16, through Sunday, October 18, at 3119 Mariners Way in Mission Bay, San Diego.
Sunday's bill puts The Offspring at the top, with The Interrupters, Goldfinger, The Expendables, Jakob's Castle, Sitting on Saturn, Ries Brothers, Kyle Smith, Sullvn, The Resignators, and The Last Call filling out the day. It's a long list of acts to work through, so you'll want to arrive early if you're planning to catch more than just the headliner.
Now in its fifth year, Mission Bayfest is set against the coastline of Mission Bay, with sandy shores, grassy park lawns and sunset views of the San Diego skyline. The music leans into the region's connection to reggae and surf culture, and the festival is run by three local partners: Dominic Coleman of Single Fin Surf Grill and Sport Fishing, Joe Rinaldi of Music Box in Little Italy, and DJ Mikey Beats of Sleeping Giant Music. They bill it as a family-friendly, community-centered weekend, and it brings in gourmet food trucks, local eateries and a marketplace of local artisans alongside the music. Past editions have drawn reggae and alternative names like Stick Figure, Tribal Seeds, Iration, Cypress Hall and Wiz Khalifa in 2024, and Slightly Stoopid, Sublime, Rebelution, Dirty Heads and Steel Pulse the year before.
