California Avocado Festival

“Very cool time seeing all the vendors, the huge variety of food offered (especially using Avocado), and watching some live music on quite a few stages throughout the area. Perfect weather and time of year for this event! Be sure to come early and plan to stay a while so you can score a prime parking spot like I did today, otherwise you’ll have to keep driving all around for a while and then walk a ways, or park even further away and ride a shuttle into the area. If you love Avocados and Guacamole, then you must check out this festival!!!”

“Great as always lots of avocado of everything everywhere. We come from the East Bay every year. There's avocado soap, oil, tea, smoothies, avocado souvenirs, t-shirts, sweater, beach towel and so much more. It's free entrance. At the end of the street there's the beach. When we come we park at the Carpintería High School and pay $10 per car plus they have a shuttle bus that takes you to the festival. You should definitely try the avocado smoothies they're delicious 🤤”

“My family and I drove from Bakersfield on Saturday to enjoy the beautiful coast in Carpenteria. Avofest 2019 didnt disappoint. Friendly vendors, good food, enjoyable music, and lots of info on avocados. Planning to go back next year!”

“A fun October activity in this quaint beach town! Lots of things avocado—ice cream, brownies, guacamole, tri tips, etc. come in the morning before it gets too crowded. Right downtown. You can then walk to the beach. Or catch the Amtrak.”

“60 bands over 3 days. All free. And a youth band stage which was amazing”
