Olvera Street DÃa de los Muertos 2026
About
The event fills the pedestrianized Olvera Street marketplace with ofrendas (ancestor altars) built by local artists, community groups, and families from throughout the region. The altars vary from intimate family tributes to large-scale artistic installations — each one telling a specific story of remembrance through photographs, food offerings, flowers, and personal objects.
Traditional Aztec dancers perform danzón and conchero dances throughout the day. Mariachi, norteño, and folklórico performances fill the small plaza at the center of the street. Local artisans sell sugar skull decorations, calavera art, papel picado, and handcrafted goods.
Olvera Street is located in the El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument, adjacent to Union Station at 845 N Alameda St in downtown Los Angeles. Metro accessible (Gold, Red, Purple, Silver, Blue lines all connect at Union Station). Free to attend — vendor purchases are individual. This is not a packaged cultural experience; it is a community marking time in a place that belongs to this history.

OB Street Fair & Chili Cook-Off 2026
The Ocean Beach Street Fair and Chili Cook-Off returns to Newport Avenue for its 45th annual celebration in late June 2026, one of the most beloved neighborhood street fairs in San Diego. The fair transforms a ten-block stretch of OB's main commercial strip into an open-air community festival with live music, local vendors, food booths, artists, and the Chili Cook-Off competition that draws dozens of amateur and professional chili teams from across Southern California. The event draws over 100,000 visitors across the weekend and is produced entirely by the Ocean Beach MainStreet Association, keeping it rooted in the neighborhood it celebrates. Newport Avenue is lined with vintage shops, surf stores, restaurants, and galleries year-round — on Street Fair weekend it becomes a street party that captures the particular energy of OB: unpretentious, community-first, and genuinely fun. Live music stages run simultaneously at multiple blocks throughout the day. The Chili Cook-Off features judging by celebrity chefs and a public tasting component where visitors vote for their favorites. Hundreds of craft vendors and food booths set up along the avenue. Newport Avenue in Ocean Beach runs perpendicular to the Pacific Ocean, about five minutes from the beach on foot. Parking is limited — take the trolley to Old Town and connect via bus, or plan to walk from the beach lot. Admission is free. The fair runs from about 10 AM to 8 PM. This is the kind of neighborhood event that defines why people move to San Diego. Do not miss it.

The authentication culture at Got Sole is strong. For sellers, the event provides direct access to thousands of serious collectors in a single day. General admission gets you onto the floor; vendor tables require advance registration on the Got Sole website. The Los Angeles Convention Center is in downtown LA, accessible via the Metro Blue and Silver Lines. September in Los Angeles is consistently dry and warm.
