One of the best parts of a street festival are the vendors and the North Park Festival of the Arts delivers with over 100 specialty booths filled with thousands of treasures. Peruse all types of hand made crafts, unique décor items and everything in between. Also, be sure to stop into the International Food Court to sample delicious and aromatic foods, cool and tantalizing drinks and desserts from dozens of local restaurants and specialty caterers.
The North Park Festival of the Arts will be rocking the historic neighborhood all day long with every type of musical genre and interactive entertainment on SIX stages! The Main Stage will blow you away featuring talented artists like rising star Josh Damigo, unique sounds of Republic of Letters and Wirepony.
Peruse the Artists’ Village where artisans display and sell their amazing creations from every imaginable medium. Painters from the worlds of oils and acrylics along with impressionists and ethereal watercolorists will exhibit alongside sculptors of clay, metal and ceramics. Take in the intricate detail of pencil and chalk drawings or be amazed at the rich and textured technique of encaustic painting.
The North Park Festival of the Arts is one of San Diego’s favorite family friendly events and there’s no wonder why. Featuring blocks of flavorful food, shopping and entertainment, this annual event draws more than 35,000 people and the Kid’s Art Beat Area is a crowd favorite!
For everyone over 21, we are excited to present the newest feature to the festival, the Craft Beer Block!
