| Live bands from various genres will be featured throughout the day for entertainment. A list of entertainment will be announced at a later date.
“Our annual Banana Festival creates a great opportunity to educate the public about the Port, trade and commerce, and the good work we perform in the community and for the environment through show and tell type experiences, Port tours, educational booths, culture, music, and delicious food,” says Kristin Decas, CEO & Port Director. “It’s a twist on an Open House theme, we like to call it an Open Port.”
Families with children will have a blast in our Kids Zone filled with games, crafts, bounce houses, and more. There will also be delicious banana-inspired drinks including banana beer and a huge variety of banana food.
“Our goal is to give back through these events and opportunities. Working together to create good paying jobs, will help us build a thriving and vibrant community,” said Oxnard Harbor Commissioner Celina Zacarias. “We cherish these family-friendly gatherings to open our doors and show our community what we do and how important ports are for the vitality of Ventura County and our country.”
The Port recognizes all of its event sponsors including Admiral Level Sponsors: Chiquita, Del Monte, Glovis, and Dole. |
