Thanks to the thousands of attendees, over 100 vendors, the musicians, the many volunteers, our generous sponsors, and countless hours of work from the staff and board members, we did it! We moved locations, almost doubled in size, and packed more fun than ever into our 8th annual Certified Local Fall Festival. We loved the new location right in the heart of Downtown Phoenix, and we're glad to hear that many of you thought the same!
If you didn't get a chance to make it out this year, check out the video for some highlights. See you all in November 2013!
This family-friendly street festival drew over 6,000 attendees last year with 60 members participating.
Entertainment was provided by some of Arizona's best musicians and bands.
Local breweries and vineyards provided drinks in the Beer & Wine Garden; many local vendors offered non-alcoholic drinks.
A raffle and silent auction raised funds for Local First and the first 500 attendees received gift bags!
A bouncing castle kept the young ones entertained while kids of all ages scaled the rock climbing wall. More activities included:
