ClovisFest: Another Great Clovis Tradition

Clovis Fest Clovis CA

What is ClovisFest?

There are a number of reasons why Clovis, CA is one of the most sought after places to live in the Central Valley / Fresno area.  While the Clovis Unified School System is a big draw for many families, activities like ClovisFest are just another reason why so many Californians are eager to relocate or move to Clovis.

ClovisFest is a 35 year old Clovis tradition that takes place on the 3rd weekend every September.  The two-day event offers carnival rides, food, and music over 10 square blocks in Old Town Clovis.

One main ClovisFest attraction is the hot air balloons.  Each morning at 6:15 am the balloons prepare for lift-off scheduled for 7:00 am at the Clovis Rodeo Grounds.  About 5,000 make the early morning trek and enjoy a hot cinnamon roll as the Balloonist prepare for lift off (weather permitting).  Once in flight, the beautiful balloons can be seen for miles, creating a breathtaking backdrop against the Sierra Nevada mountain range.

Across the street the ClovisFest Fair kicks off at 8:00 am with over 250 ClovisFest Arts and Craft and Food Vendors on Pollasky Avenue between 3rd and 7th Street.  Visitors are treated to an all Valley Car Show, multi-cultural food faire, live entertainment, family carnival, pony rides, beer garden and more.

Best of all, ClovisFest is FREE to the public with FREE parking.  If you missed this year’s ClovisFest, try to make it for ClovisFest 2010.  Next year promises to be another great Clovis Chamber of Commerce sponsored event.  Each year it draws around 70,000 people and continues to grow.
