Fiesta de Solano is an annual summer event hosted by San Francisco Solano Catholic in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. It’s a three-day community festival featuring live music, food vendors, carnival rides, game booths, and family-friendly activities. The event serves as a way to bring together both the parish and the wider local community, offering a fun atmosphere while also helping raise funds to support church ministries and programs. It’s free to attend, with food, rides, and games available for purchase, and has become one of the church’s biggest and most popular events each year.
THIS YEAR:
This year’s Fiesta de Solano is bigger and better than ever, once again taking over both Solano’s parking lot and Santa Margarita Catholic High School’s parking lot for an unforgettable weekend of food, rides, games, live entertainment, and community. After the incredible return of carnival rides last year, we’re excited to bring them back once again — bigger, better, and ready for even more fun this summer. Along with the rides, guests can look forward to more vendors, expanded entertainment, delicious food, and all the traditions that make Fiesta de Solano one of the biggest celebrations of the summer.
