Even though the day started off foggy and moist, Palmetto Ave. in Pacifica was filled with commerce and vendors all meeting together for the same purpose: Fog Fest.

Fog Fest is an annual festival hosted by Pacifica showcasing art, music, crafting, and most importantly, delicious foods. As the day progressed, so did the attendance as the sun brought sunlight and warmth to the festival. ​The Fog Fest stage played host to many acts, one being the young local rock group known as Haunted by Heroes, consisting of a group of young friends. Many arts and crafts that were being showcased were handcrafted and one of a kind.

Due to the large attendance of people, walking through the streets of the festival proved challenging. Many merchants were open to giving special prices and deals due to the festival, making it the perfect destination for bargain hunters. ​

“Sunday, the rain was definitely coming down, it was still fun though, people were still out and having a great time,” said Pacifica resident Cassandra Korpaczewski. “I usually go there to look at the booths—jewelry and photography booths to be more specific. I love the fact that you run into old friends and people you know from the community. It felt a little shorter this year. There were less booths and food options. Overall, it’s a great time and I have gone every year since it’s started and will continue to go in the future.”

The three stages were one of the most popular attractions, playing host to a medley of musical acts. The chairs were filled the entire time with music listeners and in some cases, dancers. Each stage showcased multiple acts that rocked the house and kept the onlookers entertained throughout the day. The festival was a success filled with happy folks enjoying fellowship and fun.
