Escondido Celebrates 30th Annual Street Festival

The Escondido Downtown Business Association (EDBA) is proud to host the 30th annual Escondido Street Festival, returning Sunday, May 17 from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The community festival is held each spring and fills Grand Avenue with music, artisans and fun.

This year's festival – between Escondido Blvd. and Ivy Street in beautiful Historic Downtown Escondido – includes free, live professional music on multiple stages, provided by Wildcat Guitars, as well as a Beer & Wine Garden.

The ever-popular Art in the Garden also returns to the Grand Avenue Festival, a juried art show, bringing many talented Southern California artists to show and sell their work. Art in the Garden takes place at Heritage Garden on the northeast corner of Juniper Street and Grand Avenue in Downtown Escondido.

Presented by MAGEC (Museums & Arts: Growing Escondido Culture) and the EDBA, guests can shop directly from the artists, hear about their inspiration and how their art was created.

Festival goers can shop from hundreds of vendors, including unique hand-crafted gifts, imports, and delicious international cuisine. There are also many family friendly, interactive kids’ crafts, as well as a variety of free hands-on art activities and even stilt walkers from Cirque Quirk.

The festival was made possible with support from Kingsbarn Realty Capital, Viasat Fiber and Icon Industries. For more information on the EDBA and festival, visit www.downtownescondido.com.
