Before you go

Bring ID to anything 18+, plan your ride home from late shows, and check border waits before you head back: San Ysidro’s general car lanes topped two hours on Wednesday (our story). El Buen Fin starts next Friday, Nov. 13 (dates), and Thanksgiving planning starts in our planner. Times can change, so confirm with the venue or organizer, and find more ideas in our guides.
