Dizzy's events are currently being held in the "event room" of the San Diego Wine & Culinary Center, located on the ground floor of the Harbor Club Towers @ 2nd Ave & J Street/3rd Avenue & K Street. Its entrance is actually on the back side of the buildings - on the Martin Luther King Jr. Promenade - facing the Convention Center.
Same focus on the music & vibe you know & love, just a little more pleasantly upscale
This calendar is always up-to-date & correct - THE NEXT EVENT @ DIZZY'S WILL BE:

Sun Jan 11: Denise Donatelli CD Release Event for "What Lies Within."
