For 55 years, the Newman Fall Festival has brought our community together for a Labor Day weekend filled with tradition, celebration, and hometown pride.
Join us September 4–6, 2026, for a weekend of live entertainment, carnival rides, the Kids' Zone, food and drinks, local vendors, sports tournaments, the Miss Newman Pageant, and the signature Newman Fall Festival Parade.
The weekend begins Friday evening with An Evening Under the Stars, our annual fundraiser, before the celebration continues throughout the weekend at Pioneer Park.
Come celebrate the people, traditions, and community that make Newman home. We’ll see you Labor Day weekend!
Kick start the Newman Fall Festival weekend on Friday, September 4, at 7 PM.
Little Mr. & Miss Newman and Miss Newman Pageants at the Pioneer Park Gazebo Stage on Saturday, September 5, at 6 PM.
Grab a seat on Main Street, between Mariposa and Fresno Streets, and watch the parade make its way through downtown Newman.
We’d like to recognize our Executive Committee and Event Chairmen for their leadership and dedication, and extend a heartfelt thank you to all of the volunteers who give their time and talents to make the Newman Fall Festival possible each year. From planning and preparation to working throughout festival weekend, every volunteer plays an important part in bringing this community tradition to life.
