The Laurel StreetFair World Music Fest returns to Oakland’s Laurel District for the first time since 2019! Join us as we reimagine and recreate Oakland’s beautiful Laurel District as a global celebration of music, cuisine, folkloric arts, artisans, cuisine and more. Rich with rhythms from around the globe and around the corner, the Laurel StreetFair is dedicated to celebrating our cultural roots, our community and the traditions that bring us together - reflecting all that is wonderfully and beautifully, Oakland.
2022 brings us a wealth of live music featuring performances at the Community Bank of the Bay Main Stage by Piwai, Soji Sai & AfroBeat Highlife, Fogo Na Roupa, Bayonics, La Gente and much more including a traditional blessing & land acknowledgement by In Lak'ech Danza Azteca.
Diverse, bursting with energy and full of panache, The Laurel StreetFair entices all of your senses; from sizzling global cuisine to the CA Draft Tech Beer Garden, which boasts over 20 different craft breweries, to an outdoor shopping bazaar that stretches over 6 robust city blocks including an enthralling Kid’s Carnival presented by State Farm to delight children of all ages!
