NEW THIS YEAR! This year for the first time, "How Berkeley!?" is presenting five interactive Theme Villages:

KIDSVILLE
ECO-VILLAGE
CREATIVE REUSE CORRAL
THE FIRST ANNUAL "HOW BERKELEY!?" BEER FESTIVAL

Grand Parade:
Come and help Berkeley celebrate itself in one of the most colorful, irreverent, and fun events on the west coast. Parade kicks off on Sunday, September 17, 2006 at 11:00 A.M. It starts at the corner of California and University and proceeds up University to Shattuck, turns right on Shattuck to Center and then goes down Center two blocks, where it ends in Civic Center Park.

We are always interested in getting more interesting, irreverent, funny, provocative participants in the parade.

Festival:
Included in the Festival is an outdoor stage with wonderful live music and dance, food and drink booths, crafts, non-profits, and children's activities. This year's main stage lineup includes:

L.A.E. (hip hop)
Cuatro Caminos (latin groove/rock)
Hot Pink Feathers (samba dance)
Blue Bone Express (New Orleans marching band)
