A public SF Climate Week gathering is scheduled for Monday, April 20, at Yerba Buena Gardens in downtown San Francisco. (sfclimateweek.org) The event listing says programming runs from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at Yerba Buena Gardens, 750 Howard St., with the full schedule posted on the SF Climate Week website. (sfclimateweek.org) SF Climate Week’s main site describes the 2026 program as a Bay Area series running April 18 through April 26, with hundreds of events and more than 1,000 speakers across climate policy, business, science, and community organizing. (sfclimateweek.org; climate-week.org) Yerba Buena Gardens has already hosted one official SF Climate Week kickoff event this weekend: the Earth Day Festival and Green Business Expo on Saturday, April 18, organized with the San Francisco Green Business Program, Yerba Buena Gardens Conservancy, and Climatebase. (sfenvironment.org; yerbabuenagardens.org) That makes Monday’s gathering part of a larger push to put some SF Climate Week programming in open, public-facing venues rather than only conference rooms and private offices. The week’s organizers say the event slate is built by hundreds of climate groups and volunteers. (sfclimateweek.org; explore.sfclimateweek.org) Climatebase, the organizer behind SF Climate Week, says the event series is designed to connect climate organizations, companies, policymakers, and residents in one citywide calendar. The 2024 launch announcement said the first 2023 edition drew more than 7,000 attendees across more than 100 events. (explore.sfclimateweek.org; explore.sfclimateweek.org) This year’s official hub is 9Zero Climate Innovation Hub at 350 California St., where organizers say more than two dozen events will take place during the week. The Yerba Buena Gardens stop adds a second visible downtown location to that footprint. (explore.sfclimateweek.org) For people deciding whether to go, the practical detail is simple: Monday’s program is an afternoon stop in a central public park during a week when SF Climate Week is spreading events across San Francisco. The schedule and registration details are on the organizer’s site. (sfclimateweek.org)
