Festa Italiana di San Mateo Community Street Fair July 22, 2007

The 21st annual Festa Italiana di San Mateo street fair offers something for everyone. It is truly a family affair offering diverse music, performing artists, a parade (at 10am), a Bocce Ball tournament, a classic car show, a chalk art display, a children's carnival, plus more than 200 arts & crafts booths, food & beverage vendors, and exhibits. One of the largest one-day events in San Mateo County, the fair attracts over 50,000 people from the Bay Area. Admission to the street fair is free. The street fair runs along North B Street between Tilton and 2nd Avenue in downtown San Mateo.
