Event information: Borrego Days Desert Festival has a long history of being “The” launch event for the new season in Southern California’s Desert Regions. Enticing locals to come together after a long hot summer and to welcome snowbirds back for the fabulous desert weather.
This year’s theme ‘Resort To Nature’ brings awareness and pay homage to the beauty of Borrego Springs and the surrounding 600,000 acre Anza- Borrego Desert State Park.
The FREE festival kicks off on Friday night with live entertainment at Christmas Circle featuring the country folk sounds of The Alice Wallace Band, followed by Whitney Shay and Robin Henkel offering blues, blues and more blues.
On Saturday morning festival goers will line the main street for the popular parade that starts with an emotionally filled flyover and the singing of our National Anthem. On cue the street clears and the parade begins. Parade entrants include equestrians, marching bands, floats, clowns, dancers, and more. A full day of non-stop amusement and entertainment.
After the parade the action moves back to the middle town and the historic Christmas Circle for more live entertainment with Steven Ybarra – Izon Eden and more. Festival goers will enjoy a children’s fun zone and activities, artists, food vendors, beverage garden, outdoor shopping, collector automobiles, audience choice competitions and more.
On Sunday Borrego Days continues at Christmas Circle with live entertainment from Angel Miguel and Gabby de Millan, Mariachi Estrella and the Borrego Springs Elementary Hip-Hop Dance Team. Plus shopping, eating, and frolicking in the park filled with festival excitement.
