Sonic the Hedgehog fans are in for a treat as the *Sonic Speed Cafe* restaurant announced its return to San Diego, California for 2024; in addition to a near by *Sonic Symphony* performance and a Shadow-themed motorcycle viewing.

**Why it matters:** This latest pop-up will have a special focus on Shadow, aligned with the *Fearless: Year of Shadow* campaign and the scheduled release of the Paramount's third *Sonic* film.

- It is also the fourth iteration of the collab between SEGA and the Secret Sauce Society, following [recent openings](https://tailschannel.com/sonic-the-hedgehog/heres-a-look-at-the-newest-sonic-speed-cafe-pop-up-in-texas/?ref=news.tailschannel.com) near Los Angeles, California; and Houston, Texas.
