About The Rady Shell

As San Diego’s premier outdoor venue – and serving as an architectural masterpiece – the Rady Shell in Jacob’s Park is where you want to be for outdoor concerts overlooking the beautiful San Diego waterfront.

Housing the San Diego Symphony, this venue hosts everything from classical concerts, scores from the Marvel Cinematic Universe played in sync with the movies, local and national rock bands, outdoor yoga events, and even Weird Al Yankovich (we gotta keep it weird, just a little).

Seating ranges from right up front with seats and a table, to single folding chair seats, and the lawn seats in the back where you can bring your own blankets and gear to relax. Food and beverages are not allowed (but you can always bring a bag filled with…not those things).

A Closer Look

Open in 2021, the Rady Shell has quickly become a staple experience for San Diego visitors and residents. It’s creation was spearheaded by the incredible San Diego Symphony, and it was funded almost entirely by philanthropic endeavors.
