"South By San Jose is a big parking lot block party hosted by Jo’s and neighboring Hotel San Jose, and it’s one of our favorite places to be on South Congress from March 13-17. Expect to hear live music and find local vendors selling arts and crafts. The party starts at noon and is free to attend. And it’s also the perfect opportunity to take a selfie in front of the “I love you so much” sign with the other 100 people in line waiting to do the same thing. When: March 13-17 " - nicolai mccrary
