    Our exhibitors form the heart of EarthFair. They represent every type of environmental organization, governmental program and commercial enterprise with goods, services and causes that address our environment and quality of life. Our exhibitor fees are graduated to allow everyone to participate, from the smallest organization to the largest corporation.

    It's impossible to list everything you'll find at EarthFair: traditional conservation organizations, wildlife preservation groups, products made from natural and organically grown crops, organic gardening information, alternative energy vehicles, ecotourism opportunities, many alternative and traditional health care products and services, pet adoption services, clean air and clean water products, rainforest preservation groups ... the list goes on and on.

Volunteers

    Each year, EarthFair is produced by about 300 volunteers, most of whom are volunteering for the first time. We literally could not produce EarthFair without them. Consider volunteering to help put on a festival for 60,000 of our closest friends. There are about 20 different jobs, from active to sedentary, and solo or with others.

A Lamma in the Kid's AreaSpecial for Kids

In our Children's Activity Area you’ll find crafts, games, face painting, storytelling, and a hands-on activities for children of all ages. Activities are intended to educate, entertain and inspire youth, in the spirit of Earth Day. This year, participants will find out about recycling, make gift cards from recycled materials, and learn how to visit wild areas without disturbing the environment. Our Children’s Stage features youth-oriented performances throughout the day.

Entertainment

Sun Stage crowd    EarthFair will feature four stages. We’ve already mentioned the Children’s Stage, featuring music, song and storytelling aimed at the younger set. The Moon Stage (at Park and Presidents Way) and Sun Stage (behind the Federal Building) will feature a variety of contemporary music by local artists. The Magic Stage, directly in front of the Lilly Pond on El Prado, features topical interviews and local musicians throughout the day. 

Reuse and Repair

   In the spirit of "Zero Waste," the EarthFair Reuse and Repair Area - on the lawn by the UN Building - is reserved for organizations and businesses that focus on repairing and reusing materials and manufactured items instead consigning them to the landfill. Vendors and demonstrations throughout the day show what you can do, today, to reduce waste, save money, and move us all toward a Zero Waste society.

eARTh Gallery

    The eARTh Gallery features works by San Diego artists and craftsmen, using recycled materials, and depictions of "Endangered Spaces" in San Diego County. The artwork will be presented on the lawn area next to Presidents Way and Park Blvd (by our food court, exhibit area 9).

International Food Courts

    Tired of the nitrate-filled hot dogs and sugar-loaded sodas you usually get at large public events? Then step right up to any of our three International Food Courts for a change of pace. You'll find extraordinary vegetarian fare that will make you wish it was available in the park all year long.

Earth Day Parade

Earth Day Parade    The Earth Day Parade (all species and ages welcome) starts at 10:30 am by the Spanish Village and marches through the Park to the Children's Area in the Pan American Plaza. Participants are invited to dress up as endangered species, present their favorite earth-friendly messages.

Cleaner Car Concourse

    The Cleaner Car Concourse features vehicles of all descriptions that all run on alternative fuels (hybrids included). This isn't just “the future”: these are vehicles being used on the road today. The vehicles will be on display in the Pan American Plaza.

Zero Waste

    The EarthFair goal is to be a zero-waste event, meaning that everything that is discarded is either recycled, reused or composted. And an event the size of EarthFair can generate tons of waste. Last year, we diverted 90% of EarthFair waste from the landfill!

    Let's do even better this year. When you have something to discard, look for one of the 25 Zero Waste Stations with the black, blue and green containers. A "trash talker" at each station will help make sure your discards go in the right bin - and can answer any of your recycling questions.

Getting There

   Fifty- to seventy-thousand people can create real transportation problems. If you arrive after about 10:30 am, there is often no CAR parking close to the park.

   Not to worry, though. Click here for some alternatives to keep you from being stuck behind traffic on Park Blvd. trying to get into the park to find non-existent parking spaces.

How Would You Like to Participate?

    There are several ways for you to take part in EarthFair:

  • As a visitor. Just show up ... it's all free. But, arrive early so you don't miss the Earth Parade, and so you have enough time – there's a lot to see and do.
     
  • As a volunteer. Each year, about 400 individuals just like you come out to make the EarthFair happen. Whether you'd like to help out for a few hours, take on a major accountability, or something in between, we have the job for you. Come help put on a party for 60,000 of our closest friends.  
  • As a donor. In this mid-COVID world, the cost of producing EarthFair has increased dramatically. Help ensure EarthFair continues into the next 30 years by making a donation... any amount is appreciated, and it is tax-deductible.
