HarborFest returns to Bayside Park in Chula Vista on Aug. 18 with plenty of tacos, live music, and activities for all ages.
The free family festival takes place every year and brings together community groups, vendors and local talent for a day filled with events along the Chula Vista waterfront.
From 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., the scenic park will offer a large number of fun events.
Guests can watch SoCal Pro Wrestling from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., or stop by the classic car expo. There’s also a rock climbing wall and a youth arts and crafts booth for younger visitors.
A full list of the activities can be found on the Harborfest map.
Live music will be performed on three stages until 6 p.m.
There are seven artists scheduled to play at the Harbor Stage including Caliber and Santana Way. The Latin Beats stage will have performances from nine groups like Mariachi Los Tigres from Las Vegas, Nevada. The Community Stage features local Chula Vista artists as well as youth dance groups.
