Artivál

Saturday, June 6, 2026 from 10:00am to 6:00pm

Downtown El Cajon Association is thrilled to bring Artivál back to Downtown El Cajon! Known as East County’s premier art festival, Artivál will fill the streets with color, music, and flavor on Saturday, June 6th. This free, open-air celebration unites local creatives, musicians, food and beverage artisans, and the broader community to showcase the city’s vibrant cultural identity.

From 10:00am to 6:00pm, Main & Magnolia will transform into a lively outdoor gallery featuring over 50 artists and makers, interactive installations, live music, and a mouthwatering lineup of gourmet food trucks. Festival-goers 21 and over can also enjoy a ticketed Wine & Beer Garden, highlighting tastings from local wineries, craft breweries, and beverage brands.

Artivál’s mission is to turn Downtown El Cajon’s public spaces into a living canvas, celebrate El Cajon's diverse art community, and provide lasting access to the arts. From emerging talent to seasoned artists, Artivál celebrates the rich tapestry of local artistry across disciplines and cultures—making Downtown El Cajon the place to see, experience, and celebrate the arts.
