2025 Foster Festival

February 22, 2025 @ 11:00 am 3:00 pm

Our annual festival is a day of excitement and support for children aged 2-18 and their caretakers. Attendees can enjoy a wide range of activities, including live music, amusement rides, and carnival games. Highlights include a petting zoo, rock climbing wall, bungee run, gladiator joust, video game trailer, human-sized hamster balls, and appearances by popular cosplay characters and mascots like Ghostbusters, superheroes, and princesses.  The event will also feature celebrity guests, as well as local political figures such as the mayor, governor, or their representatives. First responders, including fire, police, SWAT, sheriff, and members of the Army, Navy, and Marines, will also be in attendance. Over 20 resource vendors, including representatives from all of Arizona’s colleges, will be present to provide valuable information on opportunities available to foster kids. Additionally, there will be craft stations, free haircuts, face painting, and complimentary food and refreshments to ensure a fun and memorable day for all.
