    Back again for the 2023 Edition…read more More people and vendors! Lots to do and see for free or for cheap. Be sure to try all the options that are here. This time around, I tried Becca's Treats! So you all next year.

    This is the first year I've gone to the PQ Fiesta and it certainly didn't disappoint. What was…read morespecial about this year is that it's the first year that there was a street parade. The first year obviously has it's hitches, but for the most part, everything ran smoothly. The parade started at Mt. Carmel High School and went for a mile, ending by the shopping Vons/Rite Aid shopping center. The traffic in the area was horrible, but SDPD did it's best to maneuver and direct cars accordingly. Definitely the potential to have more participants in next years parade. I walked with my fiancee's group in the parade representing Councilmember Cate. We waved and handing out lollipops and info on city information to onlookers of the parade. Very well received. The parade was 1 mile long and we walked the route. It was cool seeing all the PQ residents come out and support! At the end we walked through the booths, and surprisingly the there were over 100+ booths to look. My fiancee had a booth by the stage so we hung out there before the program at the stage started. Volunteer organizations and kids got awards for their outstanding community service. So cool they all got recognized on stage for their community contributions. Tons of booth with food, community organizations, rides, info booths - all worthwhile to come and visit this fiesta. I can only imagine it'll only get bigger! Kudos PQ for having a great event!

Tons of things to do like joisting demonstrations, archery, mock battles, food, drink, the Queens Quest for kids and older. Plenty of stands to check out too. You can visit different guilds and learn about the history. Come with little things to barter and an adventurous spirit. Parking can be rough and sometimes there is a line and some disorganization getting into the event but despite that, we will be back.

    This was my second time coming to the Renaissance fair, the first time was many years ago…read morepre-covid. We came early so there was plenty of parking still, but it can be hard navigating with all of the people trying to get in and out. Next time I think I will park in the church and take the shuttle bus and see if that is better. I like that this Renaissance Fair is big but not too big. Sometimes too big can get overwhelming, and you don't get to see everything. This one is a really good size and there are a lot of things to see and do, and tons of vendors. I will say a lot of the booths were very expensive for their Wares. However I don't have much to compare it to, so this may be standard for Renaissance Fair merchants and goods. I will say I have seen some very beautiful items, some of which definitely look like they have put a lot of work into. There were several places inside for food, and surprisingly the prices weren't extremely terrible, and the food was pretty good. I had Carnitas fries, and fried zucchini, both of which were pretty good. I loved seeing everyone dressed up, and putting so much effort into these elaborate costumes. There are activities and entertainment as well. The actors really get into character, and we got to see the procession with the queen in tow. Since it was my first time I didn't do a lot of the activities, but they did have some games, archery, Etc. We did stop inside the Beer Garden, which had some entertainment that was very funny. It definitely was more adult-oriented in there, which makes sense. They had people singing funny songs, and they held two contests while we were there, one for the men and one for the women. We were there for several hours, and if you do a lot of the activities I could see you easily spending the whole day here. It's a lot of walking so we're comfortable shoes. I enjoyed myself, and think I would do this again, as be participate in more of the activities.

    I used to come to this street fair more often but now gravitate towards the Oside one on Thursday…read more Omgah, it's Thursday lol. But back to the review, please take time to go on the first week of May! There was around 500 vendors, I might be wrong but it was about six blocks full of fun things to be found. They do need some more things for men but then again, women are more in to shopping as a collective. If you love jewelry, small business finds, and food, it's definitely something I will be coming back for. I can't wait to go next year and replenish my earring collection. Recently started to collect them! We also had the most amazing freakin cake!!!! OMGAH!!!! I promise, if you like a cake that isn't dry, even a coffee cake that isn't dry, this company is worth ordering from! I am going to be ordering some yummy gifts for people in the future. It's called Dolce Monachelli's they do have a website and it's the best Bundt cake you will ever have. They have a cute sampler you can always get as a gift bc I will be gifting with these cakes! I think this is the best cake I've ever had! Sorry I don't have picks of the cake lol it was just too good and I forgot.

    Did ya'll know that one of the largest street fairs in the United States is the Carlsbad Village…read moreStreet Faire? Well, ya'll know now!

    @YelpSanDiego @lamesaOktoberfest…read more We really enjoyed attending the Oktoberfest in La Mesa . Thanks so much Hanna from Yelp for allowing my boyfriend & I to experience our first time attending OktoberFest La Mesa. Both of us really enjoyed this event! We kept ourselves entertained with the live bands, drank Spaten Premium Lager and ate some bacon wrapped bratwurst to partake in the Oktoberfest festivities!! This La Mesa event was much better than last year'ss Oktoberfest El Cajon we've attended. MUCH THANKS to Hannah from Yelp for allowing us to experience this fun annual event!!

Chun P and I…read morewere given free VIP passes for the Biergarten thanks to Yelp, though we purchased our own snacks. While the beer gardens require admission, the majority of the festival is free and open to the public. We attended the wiener dog races for the first time this year and they were hysterical! There were 4 to 6 dogs per heat and then they had a final round. Please note, these were not professional racing dogs, just San Diego's finest dachshund dog volunteers from families around town. One family member would release the dog at the starting line and the rest of the family would be at the finish line cheering them on. Some dogs ran straight across to their families really fast, others took their time, barked at each other, and sometimes ran back to the starting line! It was so cute! There was also a planking contest by the wiener dog races, and people have to hold plank with wiener dog stuffed animal on their back. No surprise, some of the beefiest guys dropped first, and for the session I watched a wiry young woman took the gold at holding plank nearly 12 minutes! The music on the main stage was great, we especially enjoyed the traditional German music and Jimmy's Buffet. There's so many creative booths with craft items, and all different types of food to satisfy every craving. The volunteers and security team were all excellent and I sincerely appreciated their efforts. We didn't go on the Ferris wheel, but love that they have some ride options as well. Can't wait till next year's Oktoberfest!

It was our first time staying in Tijuana and attending the festival. The food was excellent, we tried the brisket. Your $10 entrance fee allows you all-day access. We purchased bottles you can't get in Cali. We're looking forward to next year's expo.

Admission 100 Mexican Pesos or US $ 5. You can try free different types of tequila and you can also buy tequilas. There are also performances, Mexican folklore like dances, music, and songs. There is also a food court next to it. It is worth visiting and I recommend it. Tequila Expo in Tijuana is every year. My recommendation to avoid headaches buy good quality tequila with the words on the bottle "100% Agave" - BTW "How to Take a Straight Tequila Shot - The Spruce Eats https://www.thespruceeats.com ' Drinks & Cocktails ' Cocktails ' Cocktail Basics Feb 5, 2019 - "Lick, Sip, Suck" Moisten the back of your hand below the index finger (usually by licking) and pour on the salt. Lick the salt off your hand. The salt lessens the burn of the tequila. Drink the tequila. Quickly bite into and suck the lemon or lime wedge. The sour fruit balances and enhances the flavor of the tequila."
