Indian Summer

Popular Folsom Street Fair & Leather Fetish Lovers takes place the last Sunday in September in San Francisco.

Indian Summer is a period of unusual warm, dry weather after the end of a traditional summer and was first recorded in 1778.  It was, perhaps, so called--Indian Summer-- by American Indians...or because Indians were the first to describe it to Europeans.  Indian Summer is the American version of the British All Hallows Summer.

Weather during this period in San Francisco (Sept - Oct) is milder and warmer without the usual chilly fog, except for one week in October when temps soar into the 90s and/or 100.  

Just before Halloween numerous Film and Street Fairs take place in The City like Fringe Festival, Taste of Greece, Folsom Street Fair (Sept 28) and Castro Street Fair (first Sunday in October).   San Francisco Giants and Oakland A's fever take over the Bay Area when both teams make the playoffs or play in the annual World Series between the American and National Baseball leagues.
​
 Various company picnics, barbecues and outings occur as well like Building Appreciation BBQ for tenants at One Maritime Plaza on Clay Street, which is celebrated on the West Lawn.  At the event tenants get to enjoy mouth-watering ribs, chicken and burgers by Bay Area Back Forty Texas BBQ and live music across the street from the infamous Punchline comedy club.
