There will be tickets at the door for Wednesday’s Community Gala!

Join us 6pm-9pm at El Rio and celebrate 12 years of indie media. Feel free to buy a ticket beforehand for a free drink, though!

Tickets will be at the door for our 12th Annual 48 Hills Community Gala and Best of the Bay 2025 Winners’ Party! But if you purchase in advance, you are guaranteed a drink ticket in the price of admission 🙂 All are welcome, no one will be turned away for lack of funds. We love our community and can’t wait to party with you.

Celebrate a dozen years of groundbreaking, community-supported independent media as 48hills.org brings the community together for live salsa music from Susana y Su Orquesta Adelante, local bites, terrific drinks, and empowering messages from speakers Dean Preston and Cat Brooks—all on the spacious back patio of El Rio in the Mission. PLUS: Party with the winners of our 51st annual Best of the Bay! More info here.

You can’t get more Bay love than that. Come out and celebrate with us!
