The California Watermelon Festival

Get ready to dive into a watermelon wonderland! The California Watermelon Festival is bringing all the sweet vibes to Hansen Dam for a fun-filled weekend that’s bursting with flavor and family-friendly action. Think watermelon everything—from refreshing bites and drinks to wildly creative watermelon carvings. The Kids' Zone is an adventure in itself, with carnival rides, pony rides, a talent show, petting zoo, dance parties, and even a children’s theater.

But it’s not just for the little ones—grown-ups can enjoy live bands, a beer tent, a classic car show, and tons of Insta-worthy photo ops. It’s the perfect way to kick off summer with a fruity twist!
