Top 8 reasons why this award winning Bay Area street festival is so popular:

1. Location: Beautiful downtown Lafayette, close to BART, Hwy 24, and bike trails (complimentary bike valet). Driving? The Festival is an easy walk or free shuttle ride from free Festival parking.

2. Continuous Music & Dancing, featuring the Bay Area's top cover bands, including The Sun Kings, Neon Velvet, East Bay Mudd, The Spazmatics, ZEBOP!, The Houserockers, Extra Large, Aja Vu, The Big Jangle, Other People's Money, The Ripplers, Juke Joint, 3day Weekend, Mixed Nuts, Bay Bridge Beat, The Tuneriders, Bob Athayde & Friends, Sunny and the Black Pack, Strawberry Souls, Acoustic S&M and The Delivery Men.

3. Wine & Beer: Enjoy the wide selection of California varietals and craft beers throughout the Festival or Step into the Premium Wine Pavilion to savor hard to find high-end wines.

4. Food Choices: Food trucks and other Festival food. Plus, most of Lafayette's Restaurant Row is within the Festival footprint.

5. Art & Handmade Crafts: 300 booths, including the "Local Artists Alley" with curated Lafayette, Moraga, and Orinda fine artists.

6. Family Friendly: 3 Kid-Zones, family stage, and - new for 2019 - the "Y-Me" Young Maker Expo.

7. Dog Friendly: Well behaved, leashed family dogs are welcome, but typically happiest during cooler - and less crowded - morning hours.

8. Budget Friendly Fundraiser: Festival proceeds support community programs, Lafayette Partners in Education ("LPIE"), and other non-profits, but much of the Festival Experience is free, including all stages, vendor booths, and unlimited people watching!
