2025 Fiesta del Sol in Solana Beach
The 44th annual Fiesta del Sol is coming soon, on May 31st and June 1st in Solana Beach. The Festival is sponsored by the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce in collaboration with the Belly Up and the City of Solana Beach.
Festival hours are from 9 am to 10 pm on Saturday, and 9 am to 8 pm on Sunday.
Fiesta del Sol takes place at Fletcher Cove Park at 111 S. Sierra Avenue, just west of the downtown area and the Coast Road/Route 101.
The Fiesta del Sol is one of San Diego’s more popular outdoor festivals. Coupled with a beautiful location by the beach, Fiesta del Sol offers a terrific time with music, lots of food, and plenty of fun for all. And of course you can expect a lively crowd – approximately 50,000 are anticipated, based on last year's attendance.
So what can you expect at Fiesta del Sol?
This is a 2-day festival of fun, food, and music. You can enjoy a wide range of food with multiple vendors, live musical entertainment, shopping, arts and crafts exhibits, and a kids’ zone (with rides, arts and crafts activities, a bounce house and slide, face painting, and special food).
You can also enjoy the annual Pancake Breakfast from 7:30 – 10:00 on Sunday to help support Solana Beach Firefighters. There will be a fire engine to explore, assuming there is no fire emergency in town.
Here's a video from 2024 from the Solana Beach Chamber of Commerce:
While we expect El Sol to make an appearance, it’s May Gray and June Gloom time so who knows along the Solana Beach coast. But given the fun this festival provides, who actually cares if the sun shines or not?! But it likely will, at least for part of each day.
In terms of music, there will be some excellent performers, with 13 bands performing on the main stage (free) over the 2 days (7 on Saturday, 6 on Sunday).
Fiesta del Sol is free! So there is no good excuse to stay away unless you have something better to do. Given the expected crowds you may want to consider taking the Coaster commuter train to avoid parking challenges. The Solana Beach train station is located just a few blocks from Fletcher Cove Park on the east side of the Coast Road/Route 101.
