FAQ
Summer Twilight Concerts
Summer Twilight Concerts bring together friends and families to enjoy music, dance, picnic and experience a priceless Del Mar sunset.
In 1982, with Del Mar Foundation in its infancy, Mayor Lou Terrell, in his role as a founding director of DMF, began working with an enthusiastic group of volunteers to plan the first-ever Summer Twilight Concerts. They were ambitious enough to plan six concerts (and build a stage!) for the inaugural Summer 1983 season – held in Seagrove Park because Powerhouse Park didn’t yet exist.
Now, more than four decades later, DMF is proud that the series created by our founders still brings families, friends and neighbors together to picnic, enjoy music, and take in our trademark ocean views and sunsets. We invite you to get your dancing shoes (or flip-flops) ready for four spectacular concerts this summer.
Mission
The mission of the Del Mar Foundation is to promote civic pride and cohesiveness, acquire and preserve open space, improve beaches and parklands, raise and grant funds, and sponsor diverse cultural programs and community events in Del Mar.
About the Del Mar Foundation
Founded in 1982, the Del Mar Foundation is Del Mar’s community foundation and its oldest 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We sponsor a wide range of programs and events, make community grants, and manage over $9 million in endowment and reserve funds to support the Del Mar community’s long-term needs, as well as those of other Del Mar non-profits and the San Dieguito Lagoon.
Programs and community events the Foundation sponsors include the Summer Twilight Concerts, First Thursdays subscription series, Bluegrass and Beyond concerts, DMF Talks, as well as the July 4th Parade, Easter Egg Hunt, Community Picnic, and Halloween Dog Parade.
The Foundation also provides financial support to community organizations and projects. Over the years, the Foundation has also served as an incubator or fiscal sponsor for many of the present day non-profits that so greatly enrich our community.
As we work to inform and inspire the Del Mar community, we welcome your participation and support.
