2019 Gala
A festive celebration awaits guests at Don Diego Scholarship Foundation’s June 15, 2019 Dinner and Smokey Robinson Concert at the San Diego County Fair.
Receive all-day Preferred Parking and enjoy the Fair’s “Wizard of Oz” themed attractions before following the yellow brick road to the Gala’s exclusive Infield Pavilion setting. Meet 2019 scholarship recipients, mingle with San Diego’s finest, and bid on once-in-a-lifetime items before settling into Stagefront Corona Grandstand seats for legendary Motown performer Smokey Robinson.
Don Diego Chairman Roxana Foxx states, “In 2019, we celebrate topping one million dollars in scholarships to incredible students over the years. The Gala gives us an opportunity to thank our generous donors and kick-start efforts to raise our second million. I encourage people to buy tickets before the event sells out!”
