The City of Santa Ana is holding a Harvest Festival on Friday, October 23, 2026, from 4 to 6 p.m. at the El Salvador Park Community Garden, 1825 W. Civic Center Drive. The city lists it as free and open to all ages.
What’s planned
The city’s event page lists arts and crafts, games, music, community resource booths and a decorating contest. A costume contest starts at 5 p.m., so kids who want to show off a Halloween look should arrive before then.
The festival takes place in the park’s community garden rather than on the main lawn, which keeps it a smaller, neighborhood-scale gathering. It lands the day before several other Santa Ana Halloween events, so families can make a full weekend of it.
Registration
Admission is free. The city’s listing points visitors to a registration and information link, tinyurl.com/Harvest-Festival-2026, and the city’s event page has the latest details.
