This year for the California Strawberry Festival was celebrated on the weekend of May 17 and 18 in Oxnard CA and was an incredible dayfull of joyness and fun for the entire family with concert performances, more than 200 Fine Arts & Crafts booths, the Strawberry Promenade with celebrity cooking demonstrations, Strawberryland For Kids featuring rides and attractions, gooey contests, special appearances, and more, on 15 scenic acres of parkland.
Many visitors had fun with the Tart Toss Contest, the Pie Eating Contest, and the Strawberry Shortcake Build-Off Contest. The best contests were, berry best kid, berry best tart — and more. Also there were some handsome rewards for the contest’s participation.As a visitor I was curious with different food that was huge this year with so many choices. The Philly Cheese Steak Fries were gigantic! There were many different strawberries style like chocolate dipped that was giant strawberry, very sweet and very delicious!
This Festival was in Oxnard, CA is located just 60 miles north of Los Angeles and 30 miles south of Santa Barbara. Great for families, good volunteer system going on and I saw many happy workers with good Rock Music. The best and unique part was that they have strawberry wine, perfect for the weather that was so hot.
