About the California Avocado Festival ®

California's Largest FREE music festival!

The California Avocado Festival Board of Directors would like to thank all who support AVOFEST™! Your support through sponsorship, volunteering, visiting or just coming to enjoy the delicious avocados is the force behind our efforts.

We are a 501c3 created to help support other service organizations, so thank you to everyone for your continued enjoyment of the California Avocado Festival!

Our 30th ANNUAL CALIFORNIA AVOCADO FESTIVAL was so successful that it surpassed many of our previous accomplishments! In prior years, we have had over 100,000 visitors over the course of the three-day weekend.  This year, it was over 110,000!!!

Our participating Non-Profits and Service Organizations were able to generate over  $100,000 worth of funds that went back to the community through their initiatives.

Our free doggie day care had over 100 dogs kept happy, cool, and entertained while their owners enjoyed the festival! And once again, we were able to reach our goal of Zero Waste! With special thanks to E. J. Harrison.

Testimonials

My husband and I have just had 3 nights at Castro House ... having stumbled on this piece of paradise for the last part of our 4 week trip around the US ... a great way to finish! The recently renovated Castro House has been masterfully and tastefully done. The fittings, appliances and colour scheme are so complimentary and relaxing. Our days have been filled with beach walks, bicycle rides, SUP boarding, local coffees, beers and eateries ... all in walking distance from the Castro House. Jess was amazingly generous and hospitable .. wine and chocolates on arrival ... and a late check-out to co-incide with our departing flight from LA. You are a true gem Jess and I hope to be back!!
