WeaveHacks 4 ($15k+) + 3 free street fairs Sat; free Pride comedy & drag Fri eve

The AI conference calendar goes quiet tonight — AI Rabbit Hole wraps its evening reception, Minds in Motion starts at 5 PM — but the city more than fills the gap. Pride Month has taken the streets: free outdoor drag at 101 California, free comedy at Thrive City/Chase Center, and a monthly bike party rolling out from Colma.
Saturday is festival-heavy. Three simultaneous free street fairs (Union Street, Festa Italiana, and the first-ever Fisherman's Wharf Entertainment Zone) are running the same day as WeaveHacks 4, the Pink Triangle installation on Twin Peaks, and a mission-wide free art crawl at night. It's a lot — the quick-reference tables at the end of each section are the fastest way to triage.
Coverage: Fri June 5, 5 PM onward — Sat June 6, 2026, full day.

Friday, June 5 — evening
