Even after 47 years, the Parker Days Festival continues to entertain the more than 120,000 visitors who enjoy carnival rides, attractions, music from live bands, arts and crafts exhibitors, food trucks and more. This year’s Festival is Friday to Sunday, June 9 to 11, 2023 in downtown Parker. The event is FREE, but rides and attractions cost extra. However, you can save by buying in advance.
O’Brien Park features many family activities with FREE entertainment, including street performers, cooking demonstrations, free kids crafts, games, and more.
Spend as much time as you would like walking the streets, talking to the 200+ booth vendors, learning new culinary techniques, dancing to country tunes, or jamming to a silent disco (Friday & Saturday, 7 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.)
You will also be able to enjoy food from more than 30 restaurants and food trucks along with beer, wine, and specialty drinks throughout the site.
