The event is expected to draw crowds of more than 10,000 from throughout the Central Coast.

Committee members have been working overtime to put together the entertainment schedule, HDA Executive Director Liz Kresky said.

“We’ve got two stages of entertainment and over 65 vendors participating,” Kresky said.

Kicking off the festival on the main stage will be a group called Kenjiklay, followed by Knucklebone, Frisbee Productions Karaoke, Blue Heat, and a crowd favorite Elvis and the Lawmen.

A major attraction to the event, is the classic car show, located between Seventh and South streets. Awards will be presented at 4 p.m. The festival brings so many people downtown that businesses will hold sidewalk sales, and other booths and attractions.

At noon, local groups such as USA Sports Connection, Laura’s Dance Academy and Galaxy Cheerleaders will be on the children’s stage.
