I HEARD DIZZY'S MOVED, WHERE'S DIZZY'S?
The 7th Ave warehouse (built in 1911) that housed Dizzy's for 7 years is currently undergoing a massive city-mandated retrofit. Dizzy's events are now being held 5 blocks away @ the San Diego Wine & Culinary Center, located on the ground floor of the Harbor Club Towers @ 2nd Avenue & J Street. Dizzy's is really a state of mind, anyway, & its premise of providing the ultimate presentation of live performance in an intimate, casual setting - where both the performers and the audience are treated with respect - remains.

CAN I MAKE RESERVATIONS IN ADVANCE?
Sorry, no. Tickets are available at the door (cash only) on the evening of each event. They go on sale approximately one hour before show time. At that time you may purchase your tickets, & choose your seats.
DOWNTOWN IS CONFUSING . . . HOW CAN I FIND DIZZY'S?
The San Diego Wine & Culinary Center is located on the ground floor of the Harbor Club Towers. It's entrance is actually on the back side of the buildings - on the Martin Luther King Jr. Promenade which faces the Convention Center - & can be accessed from either side of the Harbor Club Towers at 2nd Avenue & J Street or 3rd Avenue & K Street.
All the numbered avenues run parallel to each other, so 2nd Avenue is 3 blocks West of 5th Avenue, which is the main thoroughfare for the Gaslamp District's restaurants & clubs. The letter streets run perpendicular to the numbered avenues. The Harbor Club Towers are situated between J & K Streets & 2nd & 3rd Avenues.
WHAT DOWNTOWN EXIT DO I TAKE?
If you're coming from the North & driving south on Interstate 5, take the 1st downtown exit marked "Front St/2nd Ave." Stay in the right lane taking you onto Front Street. Follow Front Street all the way thru town until the first street past Market, which is Island. Turn left onto Island, go 2 blocks to 2nd Avenue - turn right onto 2nd, & go one block to J. You are there! (5 Star parking on your right)
If you're coming down 163, it will end right onto Tenth Avenue. Follow Tenth Avenue until you get to J Street (2 blocks past Market). Take a right onto J Street & take it West 8 blocks until it dead-ends near 2nd Avenue. You are there! (5 Star parking on your right)
WHERE CAN I PARK?
There is a large 5 Star parking lot right across the street from the Harbor Club Towers. The entrance is at the corner of 2nd Ave. & J Street. It’s close, but be forewarned that it charges according to demand - anywhere from $7-$20 flat rate after 5PM.
Anytime after 6 PM & on Sundays or Holidays, street parking is FREE. You can even park in green or yellow commercial zones. Red, white, or blue curbs, however, are not acceptable.
You may also opt for the 6th & K Parkade, a 4 story structure with 1000 spaces. It is open 24/7. The flat evening rate is $3 Sunday thru Thursday, & $8 on Friday/Saturday.
Lastly, parking is available across Harbor Drive at the San Diego Convention Center's 1,950-vehicle underground garage located below the building. Enter the parking garage on Harbor Drive between First Ave. and Fifth Ave. The daily rate is $10.
CAN I TAKE THE TROLLEY TO DIZZY'S?
Of course you can. The trolley stops directly in front of the San Diego Wine & Culinary Center. Take the Orange Line & exit at the Convention Center stop. What a Dizzy's-like environmentally sound thing to do!
YOU HAVE TO BE 21?
No, any one of any age is always welcome at Dizzy's.
I GET HUNGRY & THIRSTY, WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?
You are welcome to bring your own coffee, water, or soft drinks in with you. There are also many fine restaurants & bars close by in the surrounding Gaslamp area. Many guests purchase & mark their seats early, then go for dinner/appetizers/drinks before the show starts. Be adventuresome, discover downtown.
WHAT IS THE DRESS CODE AT DIZZY'S?
Casual & comfortable.
