Mayfest 2024 is proud to feature a Santacruzan parade as this year’s highlight. 27 esteemed women are chosen and will represent important historical and religious figures for the parade. Some of the delegates even had their gowns sewn from the Philippines, supporting local businesses and keeping authenticity. In this blog we will introduce the Santacruzan delegates line up.

One of the most essential aspects of Santacruzan is the gowns each delegate is wearing. People are lining up to watch the parade, and many are in awe while the Reinas march the parade wearing their beautiful dresses and holding their props. Meet Cristina Halli, the talented Filipina behind the gowns for Mayfest 2024 Santacruzan

Mayfest would not be complete without the live performances of talented local artists from all over California. The talent presentations have different variations, there would be solo singing, bands, modern group dancing, and traditional group dancing. The performances are sure to be enjoyable for audiences of all ages and backgrounds. 

As summer comes in Southern California, truly there is no better place to be than at Mayfest 2024! This annual festival celebrated in Carson City is a place of gathering for the community while also supporting a good cause. To honor the caregivers in our community we created a special day for everyone to enjoy.

Mayfest 2024 will take place at Carson Community Center on May 19, 2024, and to ensure that we give our best to the attendees, we need sponsors and vendors to help us. Mayfest will feature a day full of fun activities for the whole family. Both vendors and sponsors play a role that will help make the event a success.

The Caregiver Nomination Program is our way to show appreciation and gratitude to the care heroes who did exceptional work in serving the community. If you know a care hero who deserves recognition, now is the time to bring them into the spotlight.

We need volunteers. Mayfest will celebrate Flores de Mayo by hosting a Santacruzan that will feature Reinas and important characters for the festival. But to make this happen, we need your help!

Flores de Mayo is a colorful festival that literally translates to “Flowers of May”. It is celebrated annually and Mayfest 2024 is bringing it to Carson! This festival is an important part of Filipino culture and we want the participants of Mayfest to experience its beauty firsthand. In this blog, we will share with you what makes Flores de Mayo and Santacruzan special and why they matter. We will also share what you will see when you watch the Santacruzan live.

One important aspect that Mayfest advocates for is the mental health of caregivers and care providers. They work tirelessly throughout the day caring for others and assisting with daily activities. Their work can be exhausting, and demanding, and can eventually take a toll on the caregiver’s mental health. Mayfest 2024 serves as a way for caregivers to take a break, have fun, and relax with their families.
