San Francisco’s favorite family picnic, Presidio Picnic, returns to the Main Post with the ultimate Sunday spread: blending the national park setting with the cuisine reflective of the diverse Bay Area cultures. This season, Picnic celebrates a different cultural heritage each month, with international cuisine every Sunday, and ethnic dance entertainment the 4th Sunday of the month. Come gather with community, and stay to discover all that the Presidio has to offer.
