Shoreline Festival

This is a first-of-its-kind festival in Crockett, California, on May 20^th, 2023, from 11 am to 6 pm! The Shoreline Festival will celebrate air, fire, water, and earth—the elements that are the essential forces that shape our natural environment. Amazing performers, dance troops, and live bands will delight you with their talents on two stages. Scheduled wine and beer tastings will take place throughout the day in a beautiful tasting tent, as well as a variety of booths providing an array of tasty beverages. Take flight in a hot air balloon with Sky Drifters, providing epic views of the Carquinez Strait, Carquinez Bridge, and a special aerial view of the festival.

Musical performances fill the air—dancing is not required, but it is recommended!

Children’s entertainment stage:

Children's games and hands-on activities will delight young ones throughout the day

The festival will not only be beautiful from the ground but also from above - carefully designed to be a unique visual art piece from high above the festival.

There will be artisans and small businesses selling their art and wares and lots of wonderful sustainable goods. Community groups will be leading pop-up workshops on a wide range of exciting topics including hands-on free activities. Food vendors and food trucks will offer a variety of cuisines, including vegan and gluten-free options. This is a celebration of the month of May being declared Watershed Awareness Month in Contra Costa County by the Board of Supervisors. Come join us in celebrating this important month. This is a low-to-no-waste Festival and will highlight the future of the shoreline in Contra Costa County.
