How to Do SLO: Nightlife
San Luis Obispo is widely known for year-round sunshine and serene surroundings, but that’s only half of the story. Each night, locals, students, and out-of-towners converge to create a uniquely fun and friendly nightlife scene. After a fun-filled day exploring Downtown SLO, hitting up the local wineries, or even soaking up the sun on the beach, it’s time to hit the town! There are plenty of things to do in San Luis Obispo at night, so make sure you don’t sleep on SLO when the sun goes down! Check out the growing list of weekly San Luis Obispo night time activities, events and offerings:
