Events

50th Anniversary Festival



Date:  September 12 – 13, 2009

Venue: To Be Determined

Expected attendance:  5000 – 10,000

This exciting weekend event will be the highlight of the year-long celebration! From music and the arts, to food and games, to an extravagant light show in the sky – Union City will be the place to be in September.

Plans for the party in the park include a two-day music festival featuring headliner performers sure to be enjoyed by all. Talent may include:

    • Children’s Entertainers
    • Famous 80s Band
    • Blues and Boogie Woogie
    • A Hawaiian Band
    • Swing and Dance Band
    • A Capella Singing
    • Yodeling Cowboys
    • Rockin’ Cajun Zydeco
    • Surprise Headliner Act
    • ...and more!

Our stages will also bring many surprises, such as the homecoming of now-famous faces from Union City. We’ll honor our sponsors, greet some dignitaries, and in general, have a rollicking good time!

Each day will include a grand finale performance on the main stage. On Saturday night, the crowd will be awed by either a pyrospectacular extravaganza or a mind-blowing laser light show. Sunday will be another evening of surprises, with a memorable closing performance.

To volunteer for this committee, call 510-675-5420.
