Why Marin Events?

Imagine finding out the Dipsea Race – America's oldest trail run since 1905 – just wrapped up, and you missed the thrill of the 7.4-mile trek from Mill Valley to Stinson Beach. Or hearing about the Sausalito Art Festival's 30,000+ crowd too late to snag that perfect piece of art.

Checking multiple sites just to stay updated – VisitMarin, local mags, and calendars eating up your precious time.
