Transforming Third Avenue into a bright celebration complete with a tangy mix of lemon-inspired treats, live entertainment, and family fun. The lively streets and fresh flavors have made the festival a local favorite, bringing large crowds year after year. In honor of Chula Vista’s lemon history, the festival brings the community into a zesty wonderland, packed with food and drinks, two stages of live music, arts and crafts vendors, and photo ops with the crowd favorite, Tarty the Lemon. For the young festival goers, the Little Lemons kids’ area will have games, crafts, and activities in Memorial Park. Join us for a celebration of all thing’s lemon at the 29th Annual Lemon Festival in Downtown Chula Vista. Squeeze the day with us because it’s going to be a refreshingly good time!
