3 events in San Francisco in November that need to be on your radar. First up is the 36th Annual Building Lighting Ceremony and Carnival at the Embarcadero Center. This is an all-ages event with carnival games, face painting, music, and 17,000 lights that will light up the Embarcadero Center. It's happening November 18th at 4:00 PM. Next up is the Legion of Honor's 100th Anniversary Free Museum Weekend. From November 9th to 11th, the museum is gonna be completely free to visitors, and on the 9th, there's gonna be performances by a local school marching band and a cake picnic on the front lawn. Last up are 2 candlelight tribute concerts featuring music from 2 very different artists, Hans Zimmer, and Taylor Swift on November 16th that'll be performed by string quartets. I've actually been to these in prior years. They're a really fun, unique way to hear the music, and they're only about an hour long, so not a huge commitment. Definitely worth checking out.
