Coverage: Saturday June 13 from 5 PM onward — Sunday June 14, full day.
Sunday is the bigger day by a wide margin: Stern Grove opens its 89th season for free, Sunday Streets returns to the Tenderloin, a Pride marketplace fills Hayes Valley, a film festival wraps at the Presidio, the World Cup's outdoor fan zones stay active, and national parks waive entry fees for Flag Day. Saturday evening is a solid warm-up — the NBA Finals watch party, a few live music options, and a comedy scene deep enough to fill any bracket.
No tech/AI events this weekend. The Data+AI Summit opens Monday June 15 at Moscone West — that cluster starts tomorrow.

Saturday, June 13 — evening (5 PM onward)
