Burlingame ArtzFest

The Burlingame ArtzFest, held August 11-12 on Burlingame Avenue, celebrates 20 years as it brings together art and music through a full line-up of exciting live performers and over 125 artisans showcasing original works of arts and crafts.

Award winning musicians will cover a wide range of musical genres on the main stage and local artists will display their musical talent on the community stage. Dancers and performers will get audience members on their feet with elaborate and stylistic routines.

In addition to live entertainment, a variety of creative vendors from around the country will showcase and sell their handcrafted works of art, jewelry, photography, vintage prints, clothing, sculptures, home décor, and more.

Attendees can learn gardening tips from the Home, Garden & Green section, enjoy fine wines at the Wine Pavilion, and indulge in delicious traditional gourmet food and beverages. Families with children can also enjoy the special kid’s area featuring rides, games, activities and entertainment.

“This is the perfect way to spend the weekend,” said Georgette Naylor, CEO of the Burlingame Chamber of Commerce. “Whether it’s hanging out with friends or bringing together the family for a fun outing, the ArtzFest always provides an enjoyable experience for any age.”
