Our Story

The Irenic is a non-profit music and entertainment venue for all ages located in the heart of North Park. And yes, we are also a church. After nearly six years of opening the doors of our church to host events for the North Park Community, The Irenic has been ordered by The City of San Diego to cease operations, effective immediately on September 1, 2019. We believe that this order is a violation of our rights as a faith community to use our property to both bless the community and generate income to support our ministry. It is our sincere hope that we will be able to begin hosting events again soon. We encourage you to reach out to Councilman Chris Ward's Office ([email protected]) and Mayor Falconers Office ([email protected]) to voice your support or click on our GoFundMe page to support us as we seek legal action. Thank you so much!
