The Chula Vista Harbor Fest is back, and it came back big time at the J Street Marina. I heard so many rumors that it was returning, and I have been waiting for this one. Seeing it finally happen made it the summer event Chula Vista needed.
Plenty of vendors, but also so much to see and do. Lucha libre matches right there in front of everyone. Car clubs showing off some serious rides. A huge main stage with some really good live bands keeping the energy up all day. And the beer garden was a lot of fun too. If you grabbed VIP tickets, you got access to a shaded area, free tacos, and two free drinks. I’m telling you, everything about this event was well organized, from the layout to the flow of the crowd to the vendors themselves.
I made a whole video calling on the Lemon Festival organizers to come down to Harbor Fest and start taking notes, because what I saw at the marina is exactly what I want to see more of at our other Chula Vista events. That’s how much this one impressed me.
I can’t stop talking about it. Seriously, ask anyone who was standing next to me that day. I was going on and on about the bands, the food, the whole vibe of the place. This was hands down my number one summer event in Chula Vista, no contest.
If you were there, you already know what I’m talking about. And if you weren’t, mark your calendar for next year, because Harbor Fest earned a permanent spot on my list. Let me know in the comments what your favorite part of Harbor Fest was. Chula Vista, this is exactly the kind of event I love to see in our community.
