The Art & Wind Festival Blows Back into San Ramon This May!
Mark your calendars, East Bay! The beloved Art & Wind Festival is breezing back into town over Memorial Day weekend — May 25–26, 2025 — and it’s shaping up to be the best festival in the East Bay yet. Whether you’re a kite enthusiast, art lover, foodie, or just looking for a fun day out with the family, San Ramon’s Central Park is the place to be from 11 AM to 6 PM both days.
Held in Central Park (12501 Alcosta Blvd), this high-flying celebration showcases the perfect blend of artistry and aerial adventure. Imagine hundreds of vibrant kites soaring against the blue May sky, with each one telling its own story — including dazzling choreographed performances by professional kite flyers that’ll leave you in awe.
And for the hands-on types? Don't miss the free kite-making workshop, a hit with kids and kids-at-heart alike.
This two-day festival is brimming with creative energy, featuring:
· Three entertainment stages headlining international music, party bands, and lively variety shows
· A curated selection of fine arts, crafts, and specialty food vendors
· Two food courts offering everything from local treats to global flavors
· Children’s shows and family amusement zones packed with rides and interactive activities
New this year, be sure to check out the featured festival art, “San Ramon Today” by the talented Paula Kim, whose colorful work captures the spirit of the community and the beauty of shared experiences.
The Art & Wind Festival isn’t just family-friendly — it’s bike- and pet-friendly too! Whether you roll in with your stroller, show up with your pup, or cruise in on two wheels, the event is designed with inclusivity and ease in mind. There’s even secure bike parking to encourage eco-friendly transportation.
Want to do more than attend? If you're a local business, food or beverage vendor, nonprofit, entertainer, or activity leader, this is your moment to shine. Applications are open to become part of what makes the Art & Wind Festival truly spectacular.
Visit the City of San Ramon’s official festival page for details on how to apply, event maps, and safety guidelines. The City will follow all State and County policies in place at the time of the event.
The Art & Wind Festival is more than an event — it’s a San Ramon tradition. Come for the kites, stay for the music, food, and fun, and leave with memories that’ll float with you long after the last kite has landed.
