Fairfax Festival and Ecofest


The Fairfax Festival is an annual music, food, and arts event held in Fairfax, California. Fairfax is a small town nestled in the redwoods in Marin County, just north of San Francisco. We're a destination for cyclists, nature-lovers, and foodies.

The festival is typically held over a weekend in June and is a celebration of our community's funky culture, lively music community, local artists, and, of course food and drink.

During the festival, roam the arts and crafts booths, enjoy live music on multiple stages featuring local and regional bands, and feast on a wide variety of food from vendors serving up everything from traditional festival fare to international cuisine.

Parents, make sure to head over to the Ballfield where we have activities to entertain your children. Many families make a home base on the ballfield and take turns parenting and enjoying the rest of the Festival.

In addition to the music, food, and arts, the Fairfax Festival also features a parade on Saturday morning, which is a highlight of the whole weekend. Full of creative, colorful floats, local music, and community groups, it's the perfect way to kick off the Festival.

The Fairfax Festival is a wonderful celebration of community and culture, and is a must-visit event for anyone in the Bay Area looking for music, shopping, and fun in a beautiful California setting.
