Grizzly Fest goes bigger—and north

The line-up for the annual Grizzly Fest has been announced, and with performers like Snoop Dog, Nas, and Foster the People headlining, the festival is bigger than ever.

It’s not just the acts that have gotten bigger—the festival is now a two-day event, much like Taco Truck Throwdown, which also expanded to two days this year. It seems Fresnans have proven their desire for high-quality annual events that celebrate the best of local culture and talent, and organizers are giving us more of what we want.

Another change to this year’s event is location. Traditionally held at Chukchansi Park in downtown, Grizzly Fest is moving to Woodward Park in north Fresno. While the move may seem strange to some, it’s pretty standard to see music and arts festivals taking place in parks—think Outside Lands in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park, for example.

Despite some big changes, the festival promises to remain a great opportunity to enjoy great music, art, food, and more. Look for more info to come as details are released.

I grew up in Fresno. Relaxed in its calm breezes, listened with my dad to the crack of the bat at little league baseball games when I was a kid and now take my son to do the same at minor league games. I broadened my mind at its schools (I went to high school right here at San Joaquin Memorial, and to college at Fresno State!) I love that if I drive for two hours in one direction, I can be in the mountains. For two hours in another, luxuriating on a California beach. I can enjoy the cosmopolitan atmosphere of San Francisco or Los Angeles, but still be able to come home to relaxation, calm, and quiet.

I love where I live, and I also love what I do. I'm lucky to be able to work in a profession in which I get to build relationships; one that has me meeting new people each and every day and helping them to build new lives in my beloved city. I'm lucky enough to work in a profession in which I can marry cutting-edge technologies and marketing techniques to good, old-fashioned, nose-to-the-grindstone work. I am lucky enough to work in a profession that allows me to work as an advocate for my clients; to use every tool at my disposal to get a job done well for them, and with as little stress and expense as possible.

I love my city. I love my job. One inspires my excellence for the other.

Fresno? I say FresYES
