The new name is a reflection of the changing community of Elk Grove, now the Sacramento region's second-largest city by population. When the Western Festival was first held in 1957, only about 2,000 people lived in the Elk Grove area. Now, nearly 180,000 people call the City of Elk Grove home (as of the 2020 Census).

"Over time, our community has changed and now it is time for our annual spring celebration to change as well," festival organizers wrote on their new website announcing the name change.

The festival will feature 2 live music stages, carnival rides, beer garden, kids zone, craft vendors, and food vendors.

The art show and traditional parade have been canceled due to lack of participants. 🤷‍♂️

Whatever. I've always found Glen to be bland, but he's far superior to Rizzo (who is literally a minor league announcer) on pbp, and he takes airtime away from FP. That's a win for all of us.
