As San Diego’s largest annual Earth Day celebration for more than 30 years, there will be a lot to see and do from vendors to live entertainment, guest speakers, family-friendly activities and more!
I can say that we’ve all enjoyed the event in years past. April features some of the best weather San Diego has to offer so come on out and have some fun with us as we celebrate our planet together.
San Diego Earth Day Craft Vendor
More Than 100 Vendors
I think the main event of the festival is the vendors. With more than 100 vendors signed-up for 2025, you can expect an International food court with lots of tasty food products plus eco-friendly goods and services. Environmental and conservation groups will also be represented.
My personal favorite is the animal rescue groups as they always have a few cute rescued animals on hand.
Kids Activities
Hosted by Healthy Kids Happy Planet, there will be a lot for your kids to do.
Arts and crafts are the highlight with bean art and a healthy eating plate challenge being a couple of the kid’s favorites. There will also be games and puzzles plus your kids will surely be entertained walking around exploring the vendors, especially the ones with tasty foods on display.
Hippeas will be providing free snacks which will surely be a hit!

Education Stage at the San Diego Earth Day Celebration
Education Stage
A lot of what Earth Day is all about is ‘education’. The idea is to educate people around the world on eco-friendly practices, products, services and more that are good for our planet.
EarthFest has had some really interesting speakers and panel discussion in past years so I’m hoping 2025 will be the same. The Education Stage features an extensive list of talks hosted by Rachel Hosler from the Kind Heart Coalition.
- 11:00am - Presentation: The World is Your Oyster Mushroom
- 12:00pm - Panel Discussion: Climate Activism
- 1:00pm – Book Talk: Read for the Planet
- 2:00pm - Panel Discussion: Protecting Wildlife
- 3:00pm - Presentation: Tips for an Eco Lifestyle
- 4:00pm - Presentation: Growing Fruit Trees in San Diego
I’m excited for the panel discussion about protecting wildlife at 2:00pm which will feature Jaclyn Ekhaml from the Global Conservation Force and Jess Sorrentino from the Cheetah Conservation Fund.
I’m also personally looking forward to the book talk by Ayan Ramanathan which will discuss ‘Listen Up Kids! Our Planet is Changing.’ I think it’s really important to educate our kids on climate change and what we can each do to help, so let’s see what’s discussed.
