ADVISORY ALERT: As a result of the amended orders and emergency regulations issued by the San Diego County Public Health Officer in response to the COVID-19 situation in San Diego County, the City of San Diego has enacted temporary limits on public gatherings to protect the public and slow the spread of COVID-19. These limits have specific implications for special event permits and on-location filming, which apply for both future permits and previously issued permits in the City of San Diego. Special Event permits issued through April 30, 2020 have been canceled. Filming permits in the public right of way or on public property will not be processed at this time. This guidance will remain in place at least through April 30, 2020.
