Families can also take part in the Creation Station full of children's activities, as well as food vendors.

"It feels good to be back in the crowd and to see all these smiling faces, and my kids are having a lot of fun at the festival. I'm here with my mom who hasn't been here in a while, so it's been really nice to be at the festival today," said Tara Gonzales.
