From our neighbors, the San Francisco Giants….
The San Francisco Giants are bringing the first ever non-game day public movie night to Oracle Park this summer! Please join us on Saturday, July 13th as we show Bohemian Rhapsody (Sing-Along) on Oracle Park’s brand new, 4K scoreboard (the largest video board in California – 45% larger than San Francisco’s biggest movie theater). On the 34th anniversary of Queen’s historic Live Aid performance, guests will get exclusive access to sit on the Field, enjoy a pre-show performance by The Killer Queens (the world’s only, and San Francisco’s own, all-female tribute to Queen), and sing along to Queen’s hits while watching a special cut of the film Bohemian Rhapsody (2018, PG-13). Prizes will be handed out to select individuals wearing their best Freddie Mercury costumes. A portion of all ticket sales will be donated to our partners at the San Francisco AIDS Foundation. We look forward to seeing you at the ballpark!

Note that this CAC is a separate CAC from he one that meets under the auspices of the former Redevelopment Agency and is known as just Transbay Citizens Advisory Committee that meets at YBCA at 701 Mission normally.

The planned park on an acre in the middle of the current day’s Transbay Temporary Terminal on Main/Folsom/Beale/Howard Streets is a chance to get a neighborhood serving park. Please attend this Thursday’s Transbay CAC meeting if you are interested in hearing and providing input on the designs for the park.
