Mayfest is the biggest community celebration in Fort Worth! Four days of live music, festival food, carnival rides, performing arts, pet adoptions, live demonstrations, stilt walkers, more than 135 Art and Gift Market vendors, free children's activities, special attractions, seven stages of entertainment - the list goes on and on!
There is something for everyone on our seven stages of entertainment with three dedicated to live music and four featuring a wide variety of community performance groups. Held on the first weekend in May on 33 glorious acres in Fort Worth's Trinity Park, Mayfest is one event you won't want to miss!
Join us for our 53rd year welcoming over 125,000 attendees!
