The Solento Surf Festival (SSF) represents the vibrant convergence of surfing, film, art, and music. We invite the community to immerse themselves in the festivities taking place from September 14 – 21 in Encinitas, California.

On September 14, SSF launches with the Seaside Beach Takeover—a family-oriented day brimming with surf contests, live music, food and drinks, and partner activations.

From September 19 to 21, the historic La Paloma Theatre will serve as our hub, showcasing the best new surf films, panel discussions with world-class athletes and creatives, live music, and more.

There will be other community activations throughout the week including a meet and greet party with our presenting sponsor Outerknown and an Art Show hosted at Four Moons Spa. Learn more below.
