Festival of the Bells
This year’s Festival of the Bells, celebrating the 256th anniversary of the founding of the Mission San Diego de Alcalá, will take place on July 18, 19 and 20 and will once again feature a $10,000 Draw Down! The winner of the Draw Down – the ticket holder or holders of the last ticket to be drawn – will win $10,000! Only 200 tickets will be sold at $100 each and are sure to sell out. Group or “syndicate” tickets – where two or more people contribute to the price of the ticket – are permitted. Draw Down ticket order forms are available on the round table in the center of the church, the Visitor Center and Gift Shop, the parish office, and the parish website under the “Events” section of the parish website.
