Spring on the Island: 3 Events to Catch at Cityside Park

Spring programming is in full swing on Treasure Island. A high-energy sunset fitness class HIITs Cityside Park on April 30, Off the Grid returns every Saturday through May 16, and Yoga by the Water continues every Sunday into the summer. Each one happens at Cityside Park, the 6-acre waterfront destination named one of the San Francisco Chronicle’s must-do experiences for 2026. 

Here’s what’s on the calendar this spring, and how to plan your visit. 

Fitness by the Water with Lux Fit

Lux Fit brings its signature coach-led HIIT class to Cityside Park for a sunset workout on the waterfront. The hour-long class combines strength, cardio, and bodyweight circuits, with intentional transitions that move the group through the park and along the shoreline. Expect a real sweat, a guided run past some of the best skyline views in San Francisco, and a chance to train somewhere new. 

Afterward, the class winds down with smoothies and time to hang with the Lux Fit crew as the sun sets over the Bay. All experience levels are welcome.

Yoga by the Water with Outdoor Yoga SF

Yoga by the Water is a weekly partnership with Outdoor Yoga SF, the Bay Area studio known for its open-air classes at Baker Beach and Golden Gate Park. Every Sunday morning at Cityside Park, experienced local instructors lead an all-levels vinyasa flow with sweeping views of the San Francisco skyline and the Bay Bridge. 

The class is built on the approach that’s made Outdoor Yoga SF a Bay Area favorite: thoughtful sequencing, accessible pacing, and a focus on being present in the environment around you. Whether you’re new to yoga or part of a regular practice, the class is designed to meet you where you are. The series runs every Sunday into the summer, with an end date to be announced.

Make a Day of It

Most of these events run for an hour or an afternoon, but there’s no reason to head straight back to the ferry. Cityside Park is built for lingering, with open lawns, coastal gardens, and blue wooden lawn chairs lined up along the water. Walk the waterfront paths for views of all three bridges, grab brunch in Aracely Café’s garden patio, or head to Mersea Restaurant & Bar, set inside repurposed shipping containers with live music on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday afternoons. 

If you’re staying into the evening, Gold Bar Whiskey Distillery & Tasting Room is just down the road. The restored 1930s Art Deco terminal serves cocktails, hosts tasting room hours, and is up for two Best of the Bay Area titles from SFGATE.
