The 2020 Oxnard Salsa Festival Board of Directors

The 2020 Oxnard Salsa Festival Board of Directors is hoping our Salsa family is safe and doing well. We lament not having our Festival this weekend (another perfect weather one as is usual for Oxnard) but we want to reassure you that we are doing everything in our power to return when it is safe to do so. #OxnardSalsaFestival #SalsaFestival #SalsaFest #Oxnard #OxnardCA #DowntownOxnard #PlazaParkOxnard #OxnardStrong

The 27th Annual Oxnard Salsa Festival, slated for July 25-26 in Plaza Park in Downtown Oxnard, has been cancelled due to the coronavirus crisis. The festival will not be rescheduled for 2020. "We know cancelling the event will disappoint many in the community who have made the Oxnard Salsa Festival a family tradition," said Gary Blum of the Oxnard Downtowners, which puts on the festival each year. "We've been closely following Ventura County Public Health and CDC directives. Our decision was based on protecting the well-being of our festivalgoers, vendors, exhibitors and staff." We hope everyone stays safe and healthy during these difficult times and we look forward to welcoming salsa fans to a successful festival next July 24-25, 2021.
