ARTS & CRAFTS
The Manhattan Beach Hometown Fair is home to over 200 juried fine arts and crafts booths, showcasing the incredible talent of local and regional artists. From handcrafted jewelry and ceramics to woodwork, paintings, textiles, and more — there’s something special around every corner.
Each artist is carefully selected to ensure a diverse and high-quality mix of original, handmade goods. Come browse, shop, and support creativity in its truest form.
FOOD BOOTHS
Get ready for a delicious weekend! The Manhattan Beach Hometown Fair offers a mouthwatering variety of eats and treats across both Dorsey and Live Oak Fields. From pepper bellies, pulled pork, and pizza to funnel cake, shave ice, and boba — there’s something for every craving.
Our Food Booths are proudly run by local nonprofit organizations. Many have been part of the Fair for years, while new groups join in annually to take advantage of this incredible fundraising opportunity. With around 30 booths each year, it’s one of the best (and tastiest) ways to support the community.
Please note: Only nonprofit organizations are eligible to host a food booth. Commercial vendors are not permitted.
PAID GAMES
Looking for some old-fashioned fun? The Hometown Fair’s Paid Games area is packed with creative, carnival-style booths hosted by local South Bay service clubs and nonprofit organizations. Try your hand at ring toss, test your aim, or discover new and quirky challenges you won’t find anywhere else.
Whether you're in it for bragging rights or just a good laugh, the game booths offer something for everyone — kids, teens, and adults alike. All booths are run by local groups, and proceeds go directly to supporting community programs and causes.
Grab your tickets, bring your A-game, and get ready to win big (or at least have a blast trying)!
CIVIC CORNER
Civic Corner is your chance to connect with the City of Manhattan Beach! Stop by to learn more about local services, meet city staff, and discover how our community works behind the scenes. It’s a great way for residents and visitors to engage, ask questions, and get involved.
You’ll find Civic Corner right at the Fair entrance, across from the Joslyn Community Center.
COMMUNITY PLACE
Located at the north end of the fairgrounds, Community Place is a dedicated space for registered South Bay nonprofit and political organizations to share information about their causes. This is the only area at the Fair where groups may promote public safety, community issues, and local awareness efforts.
While no items or services may be sold, participating organizations are encouraged to engage with fairgoers, distribute materials, and spark meaningful conversations — all in a safe, designated environment designed for connection and education.
