The biggest one day only street fair that takes place in the nation, the Carlsbad Village Faire is a treat for the whole family and not to be missed! Sunday May 4th will see this year’s event brought back to the community, taking place between 8am and 5pm. Each year, the local Chamber of Commerce organizes these Faires – once in Spring and again in Winter. For the last forty years, this bi-annual event has been a staple of the local calendar, having grown from a small neighborhood occasion to drawing crowds to the hotels near Carlsbad CA.
More than one hundred thousand people attend, taking in the sites and experiences of the city while being able to explore the numerous unique stalls and booths. The seaside backdrop to the event creates picture perfect surroundings for retailers of all kinds, for everything from clothing and accessories to home wares, art and antiques, plants, jewelry and children’s items. More than nine hundred vendors attend with their range of products, many uniquely available at this event and not on offer elsewhere.
The International Food Court area contains over fifty booths and will be offering food from around the world. Entertainment includes a designated children’s area with face painting, bouncy castle, climbing areas, arts and crafts and much more. For the adults, entertainment includes the Rotary Club of Carlsbad hosting their traditional beer and wine garden, and a range of live music and performers scheduled throughout the day.
