The OC Día del Niño Festival is Orange County’s premier free family festival that features two full days of live music, dance, circus workshops, engaging children’s art activities, community resource booths that inspire lifelong appreciation and participation in the arts.

Día del Niño/Day of the Child is a traditional family holiday celebrated in Mexico in April that honors children, celebrates their importance in society and promotes their well–being. The theme for this year’s festival is A Celebration of the Americas (Celebración de las Américas).

The 2020 OC Día del Niño/Day of the Child Festival is a featured event of Arts OC’s 35th Annual Imagination Celebration, a month-long countywide festival of arts for families and children.
