Join The City of Berkeley, Waterside Workshops, and other neighbors at the recently renovated Aquatic Park for the 2024 Berkeley Aquatic Park Youth Festival on Saturday, December 7, 2024!
Celebrate Berkeley’s youth and the community-based organizations that support them with an afternoon full of family fun. There will be youth performances, food trucks, fire truck tours, face painting, a bike and boat parade around the lagoon, and more.
Bring your decorated bike to participate in the parade with BORP Adaptive Sports or join a bike decorating session at Waterside Workshops from 12-2pm! Berkeley Boatshop youth interns will decorate boats for a lagoon parade alongside the Berkeley Rowing and Waterski Clubs.
Plus, Street Level Cycles will be hosting its annual Kids Bike Giveaway. They’ll be giving out 100 bikes on a first-come, first-serve basis – so get there early to get your bike!
