BACKGROUND: The festival pays tribute to California's billion-dollar strawberry industry. Ventura County, with its unique coastal environment of ocean exposure and year-round moderate temperatures, is ideal for the luscious fruit. The festival premiered in 1984 at Channel Islands Harbor. After eight years, the increasingly popular event outgrew its original site, moving in 1992 to Strawberry Meadows at College Park. In 2023, the festival moved to the Ventura County Fairgrounds.
