Get ready for an incredible weekend of non-stop fun at the Mariposa Butterfly Festival! It all kicks off with an exciting parade on Saturday, winding through the heart of downtown Mariposa. But that's just the beginning!
Feast your way through a tantalizing array of food vendors, browse amazing art from talented artists, and get ready to groove to the electrifying beats of live music and entertainment. Bring the whole family and let the kids revel in a world of games, activities, and gigantic bounce houses.
Prepare to be awe-struck by breathtaking movies that will transport you to another world. And remember to visit the Jurassic building for a mind-blowing Jurassic dinosaur tour!
Back by popular demand, we are pleased to share the Fairy Village & Tea Party! Meet our forest fairy, take fairy photos in the magical forest, and build a fairy house of your own. Tickets for fairy tea parties can be purchased in Fairy Village.
And, of course, what butterfly festival would be complete without the magical moment of butterfly releases? Don't miss out!
