Destination Spotlight: 8 Epic Reasons to Visit San Diego, California in 2018

San Diego may be best known for its laid-back beaches, but the U.S.’s 8th largest city
 is packing so many big sporting and cultural events into 2018 that visitors might forget
all about the region’s famous coastline.
From amateur soccer to professional baseball and from up-and-coming music festivals to the world’s leading pop culture celebration, the following 8 events will offer visitors to San Diego epic excitement in 2018.
  1. March Madness: Visitors planning to head to San Diego during March 15-18 should prep their brackets, as rounds 1 and 2 of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship will take place at San Diego State University’s Viejas Arena. 
  2. Chicano Park Day: Located underneath the San Diego-Coronado Bridge overpass and designated a National Historic Landmark in 2017, Chicano Park is the world’s largest collection of Chicano murals. Held on April 21, this free annual event honoring the park celebrates the art and culture of San Diego’s Latino residents with traditional music, dance, a lowrider car show, vendor booths, kids’ arts workshops and more.
  3. Tomorrow’s Soccer Stars, Today: Visitors will have the unique opportunity to check out soccer’s future superstars at the U.S. Soccer Summer Showcase, June 18–July 1. Home to 21 full-sized soccer fields on 52.5 acres, the SoCal Sports Complex in the North County city of Oceanside will host the U.S. Soccer Development Academy’s popular summer series.
  4. The Original Nerd Culture Fest: Others will come and go, but the original started and remains in San Diego. The largest comics and pop culture event in the United States, Comic-Con International attracts thousands of artists, celebrities and fans of comic books, movie memorabilia and all things related to pop culture to the San Diego Convention Center in downtown, July 19-22. 
  5. Fall’s Best Music Festivals: Held Sept. 14-16 at the seaside Del Mar Fairgrounds, KAABOO Del Mar features seven stages and more than 100 musical acts, plus a dedicated comedy stage and food and beverages from local and celebrity chefs, craft breweries and local wineries. For electronic music fans, CRSSD offers craft beer, gourmet food, and impeccable daytime vibes alongside world-class music. Dates in October for CRSSD are TBD.
  6. The Ultimate of Ultimate Competitions: The pinnacle event for this popular flying disc sport, the U.S.A. Ultimate National Championships will be held Oct. 18-21 at the Surf Cup Sports Park located in the North County city of Del Mar.
  7. A Football Rivalry for the Ages: Dating all the way back to 1927, visitors can watch the longest uninterrupted intersectional rivalry in college football when the United States Naval Academy Midshipsmen play the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in a regular-season college football game on Oct. 27 at SDCCU Stadium.
  8. Celebrating 10 Years of Beer: With more than 150 craft breweries in the county, San Diego Beer Week is such a big deal that it has to extend beyond one week into a 10-day celebration every fall. 2018 will mark the 10th anniversary of Beer Week in America’s Capital of Craft Beer. Dates for San Diego Beer Week 2018 are TBD.

TripAdvisor Acquires New York-based Citymaps, a Social Mapping Platform

Travel planning and booking site TripAdvisor® (www.tripadvisor.com) has acquired New York-based Citymaps (https://citymaps.com/), a social mapping platform that enables tourists to discover countless hidden gems and hot spots, near and far, all around the world. The website and app make it easy for consumers to find points of interest, navigate urban destinations and share favorite locations with friends.

"The Citymaps team understands how people experience their day through a maps lens," said Adam Medros, senior vice president, global product, TripAdvisor. "We are excited to welcome the team to the TripAdvisor family of brands to help TripAdvisor ensure its mapping features best address the needs of its users who are increasingly accessing the site on mobile devices."

"Over the past several years, we have built a popular mapping app that delivers socially-powered inspiration and exploration for travelers," said Elliot Cohen, CEO and co-founder of Citymaps. "Given our shared focus on helping travelers plan and experience a great trip, we look forward to working with the TripAdvisor team."

The importance of online mapping technology is increasingly significant in consumer usage for everyday situations, including tourism. In 2015, TripAdvisor's "TripBarometer Connected Traveler Report" revealed that 81 percent of U.S. travelers use maps on their smartphones to find their way around.

TripAdvisor's existing mapping features currently help consumers find, book and experience the best things destinations have to offer and receive millions of views per day.

Citymaps will continue to be run as a standalone business. Terms of the acquisition will not be disclosed.
