Celebrate Santa Barbara's
55th Earth Day!
​
The Santa Barbara Earth Day Festival is one of the longest-running and most impactful Earth Day celebrations in the country—and a cornerstone event for the environmental movement on the West Coast. Set in beautiful Alameda Park, this two-day celebration brings together thousands of people for a weekend filled with live music, plant-forward food, sustainable vendors, family-friendly activities, and the largest Green Car Show on the West Coast.
​
But this festival is more than just a celebration—it’s a call to action. In a time of escalating climate challenges, rising economic inequity, and environmental injustice, your participation matters. By showing up, you become part of a community pushing for climate resilience, environmental justice, and solutions that protect our planet and future generations.
​
Whether you’re discovering clean tech innovations, connecting with local organizations, or volunteering to serve, the Santa Barbara Earth Day Festival invites everyone to play a role in building a more sustainable, equitable world. Come be inspired, informed, and empowered.
