City of San Diego to Take Over Starlight Bowl Operations After Negotiations Cease

San Diego, CA, October 1, 2026 — The City of San Diego has announced the conclusion of its negotiations with Save Starlight, a community group, concerning the future of the Starlight Bowl.

The contractor’s name involved in the previous discussions or any potential future management has not been provided. Likewise, the financial terms or proposed operational models that were part of the negotiations were not detailed.
