Providing Expert Information to All Visitors
Visitors Center volunteers are the ultimate guides to Balboa Park. They provide detailed park information and personal assistance to all guests – more than 500,000 annually.
Managed by Forever Balboa Park, the Balboa Park Visitors Center is prominently located at the northwest corner of the House of Hospitality building. Its information desk is continuously staffed by highly knowledgeable volunteers who have access to the most current and comprehensive information about the park’s activities and attractions.
