Spring is calling
How will you answer?
San Jose is officially in bloom, bringing longer days, warmer rays and high energy. Whether you’re here for the roar of the crowd or a quiet moment in the hills, we’ve curated the ultimate spring bucket list.
- The Thrill: Feel the madness at the SAP Center for world-class college hoops and fanfests around downtown
- The Exploration: Escape the grind. Chase the sunset at Sierra Vista Open Space Preserve or have a picnic amongst thousands of blooms at the San Jose Municipal Rose Garden
- The Culture: Get local. Dive into the city’s vibrant soul at San Jose Day, SoFA First Fridays, and Viva Calle
- The Relaxation: Unwind in style. Sip sun-drenched cocktails on Santana Row or enjoy a glass of wine overlooking rolling hills at San Jose’s only vineyard winery, Alamitos Vineyards
Wherever this spring takes you, make a point to enjoy it in San Jose. Book your stay now!
