The 2024 Santa Barbara Earth Day Festival is Saturday and Sunday, April 27 and 28!

VENDOR REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN

In 2024, we are aligning with the Earth Day Network’s theme of Planet vs Plastics.  This theme calls to advocate for widespread awareness on the health risks of plastics, rapidly phasing out single use plastics and pushing for a strong UN Treaty on Plastic Pollution by the end of 2024. 

Please join us as we educate and inspire our attendees to take action on plastic reduction.

 In 2023, Special Guest Speaker, Actor, and Activist, Jane Fonda Joined Us For Our Environmental Hero Awards Ceremony. Stay tuned for the 2024 details!

The Santa Barbara Earth Day festival is one of the longest-running Earth Day celebrations in the country – and is believed to be one of the largest Earth Day festivals on the West Coast. Santa Barbara’s environmental reputation attracts national media, celebrity attention, and local crowds.

Thank you to all our festival volunteers!

Earth Day shines a spotlight on companies who put sustainability front and center and provides an audience that’s willing to hear your message.
