Eco Adventure’s Earth Day Extravaganza

April 19 @ 11:30 am - 2:30 pm

Our festival is BACK! Join us as we celebrate our Anniversary and Eco Adventure’s global Earth Day celebration honoring ALL the cultures in our planet to celebrate our Mother Earth —from every corner of the world.
Travel the globe in one exciting day as families explore cultures, wildlife, and conservation efforts from around the world. Meet conservation and environmental organizations, connect with local groups and Scouts, and visit vendors inspired by global traditions and sustainability.
Enjoy live performances from around the world and interactive experiences throughout the festival, including animal shows, a magic show, a Polynesian dancer, a Mariachi band, fossil digs, and hands-on activities that highlight Earth’s incredible biodiversity. Kids can “travel” with their own passports from continent to continent and experience exhibitors, and vendors with activities, green screen pictures, face painting, pony rides, a petting zoo and animals from different regions of the planet.
With delicious food from Benta Box, Harbor-Que and others, this nonstop family fun, Earth Day Extravaganza is your passport to celebrating our planet, protecting its future, and honoring 15 years of Eco Adventures’ impact.
*The festival outdoors is free but there will be ticketed performances inside ECO. Animal presentations $10/person and a MAGIC SHOW $15/person
