Beyond an educational center, we offer cultural and social events to live and love French!
The Alliance Française San Diego offers a wide range of French cultural and social events where Francophones and Francophiles can come
together to practice French in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, both inside and outside the classroom.
Throughout the year, we host more than 100 events, both in person and online. Our program includes recurring monthly
events such as the French Film Club, French Book Club,
social gatherings, and hikes.
Our calendar is also enriched by author talks, book signings, art exhibitions, creative classes and more. In addition, we organize several signature annual events, including the Night of Ideas, our Francophone night, and our flagship event, the San Diego French Film Festival. Together, these events showcase the richness, diversity, and vitality of French and francophone cultures.
👉 Check out upcoming events below: A bientôt!

A group exhibition celebrating the causes that matter to you.
We invite artists to share work inspired by a cause
they care about—whether it is equality, LGBTQ+ rights, environmental protection, mental health, social justice, cultural heritage, peace,
animal welfare, or another issue close to their heart. Together, these unique voices create a richer conversation about the world we share
and the future we hope to build.
