About Mole & Mariachi Festival

A vibrant event celebrating Santa Cruz County’s cultural heritage, the 2nd annual Mole & Mariachi Festival is a fun-filled day of music, dancers, food and beverages and kids activities including crafts and piñatas. Guests can also sample authentic mole prepared by local chefs and then vote for a favorite. The event is a benefit for nonprofit Friends of Santa Cruz State Parks in support of Santa Cruz Mission State Historic Park. Funds raised will fund restoration projects, educational programs for school children and community cultural events.

Friends of Santa Cruz State Parks is an entrepreneurial nonprofit working to sustain the legacy of our state parks and beaches since 1976. Santa Cruz Mission Adobe State Historic Park was scheduled to close in 2012 but was saved by Friends of Santa Cruz State Parks.

Admission to the Mole & Mariachi Festival is free; tasting kits cost $10.
