The Carlsbad Village Faire is Sunday May 5, 2013 in Carlsbad California

 

It’s Friday and almost the weekend. Looking for something to do?

 

Carlsbad Village Faire in Carlsbad California May 2013Hard to believe but it’s time again for San Diego County’s largest street fair, the Carlsbad Village Faire, this Sunday, May 5th in downtown Carlsbad Village.

 

The Carlsbad Village Faire is the nation’s largest 1-day outdoor street fair. As always, the fair will be held near Carlsbad Village Drive and spill over onto side streets including Grand Avenue and State Street.

 

The Carlsbad Village Faire (one of two each year) is an amazing outdoor event, open from 8 am until 5 pm with something for everyone. Typically 100,000 attend this fair, featuring over 900 vendors (featuring clothing, arts and crafts, gift items, collectibles, garden items, antiques and so much more), and multiple food booths at the International Food Court, the annual Pancake Breakfast at the railroad depot from 7 am until noon, plus the always-popular Rotary Club’s wine and beer garden.

 

Carlsbad Village Faire in Carlsbad California May 2013When you get tired of visiting all the vendors you can indulge in the wealth of restaurants and retailers in the Village area, plus there are lots of things for kids to enjoy. And the beaches are just a couple of blocks away.

 

You can expect parking to be a challenge, given the crowds, so plan to get there early – but the parking is free in Carlsbad.

 

You might also consider the free parking and shuttle service from the Westfield Mall (at the 78 and El Camino Real/Jefferson) and the Poinsettia Coaster Station on Avenida Encinas between Palomar Airport Road and Poinsettia.

 

The Carlsbad Village Faire is free and NOT to be missed.

You have made the Carlsbad Village Faire sound very tempting.  All that entertainment, and it's FREE.

This time of year often provides so many wonderful events for local communities.  Your Carlsbad Village Faire sounds like one of them!  I hope you have a good weekend, Jeff!

June - well have fun. Not sure I will be around as I am working on a couple of offer. Yes, the little one is a treasure, to be fondly remembered forever.

Jane - these events are massive people attractors, and well worth it.

Thanks, Myrl. I am going to try to make it as I do every year. They really ARE lots of fun and the art and people watching are wonderful. But I have a lot going on...we'll see.

Hi Jeff, an event like the Carlsbad Village Faire is right up my alley. With 900 vendors to peruse, every minute of the day would be filled.

Jeff, the Carlsbad Village Faire sounds like a great way to spend the day. The International Food Court sounds like a big winner.

Hi Jeff, I would love to go and I still to this day haven't made this Faire. But , it is not in the cards again for the same reason as you may not go. One day for sure.
