For 50 years, Fiesta has been filling Hermosa’s streets with art, music, and fun. Fiesta de las Artes, as it was originally named, celebrated artisan culture and welcomed visitors from all around to the beach to shop and enjoy the art. For more than a decade, Fiesta has been known as Southern California’s largest beachside arts and craft festival. But we in Hermosa like to think of Fiesta simply as a tradition.
Going back to our roots, we’ve modified the name for this year’s post-pandemic event to Fiesta Hermosa Locale to honor the modified footprint and highlight our community’s “shop local” efforts. Our theme of “locale” will be immediately felt in all of our activities—front celebrating Hermosa’s history to drinking local beer.
