The annual Cherry Festival will be held this year on June 7, 8, 9 & 10, in the beautiful "microtropolis" of Beaumont, California. There are many activities planned for the four-day event including live entertainment, carnival, a pancake breakfast, a parade and lots of arts & crafts booths, and some truly scrumptuous food.
The festivities begin on Thursday, June 7, at the Festival Grounds (known the rest of the year as Stewart Park), from 5 to 10 pm. Friday, June 8, the festival will be open from 5pm to midnight. Then, Saturday morning, June 9, starts off with the pancake breakfast from 6:30 to 10 am at the Civic Center; then the parade begins at 10:30 am. The festival grounds will be open from Noon to Midnight. Sunday finishes up this year's festival from Noon to 9 pm.
There is plenty of parking at the Wal-Mart parking lot on 2nd street, or the Sports park on Beaumont Ave. A free shuttle bus will be provided every half hour from each of these locations. Remember, though, that the last bus will leave the Cherry Festival grounds a half hour before closing.
Many local businesses sponsor this annual event. Click here for a flyer for this year's event.
