Heart of the Village Blood Drive in Carlsbad
Valentine's Day 2026
NOTE - FULLY BOOKED AS OF 1/21/26
Carlsbad residents once again have an opportunity to help the community, through the San Diego Blood Bank, with their need for blood donations.
The 9th Annual Heart of the Village Blood Drive will be held in Carlsbad Village on Saturday, February 14th from 9:30 am until 3:30 pm. What a special way to spend part of your Valentine’s Day!
Blood donations will be taken at the San Diego Blood Bank Bloodmobile at the Barrio Glassworks parking lot at 3060 Roosevelt Street. Thank you, Barrio Glassworks for your generosity.
Each person who donates blood will receive a hand-blown glass heart from Barrio Glassworks.
Hundreds of pints have been donated through previous Heart of the Village Blood Drive events! As in the past the Carlsbad Village Association is the sponsor.
All donations are by Appointment Only, preferably in advance, but last minute appointments might be available on donation day. You can reserve a donation appointment online at the San Diego Blood Bank website.
At the time this was written there were multiple appointments available. However, in the past they have tended to fill up quickly, so don’t put off scheduling your appointment if you want to participate.
You can read more about the Heart in the Village blood drive here including qualifications for donating.
This is also your opportunity to grab a special Valentine gift at Barrio Glassworks. Plus there are plenty of retailers nearby for gift shopping if you still need to buy something for someone special. The Village Faire Shopping Center, with multiple shops, is just a few blocks away at 300 Carlsbad Village Drive.
