Chalk It Up 2026 – 36th Annual Chalk Art & Music Festival Saturday–Monday, September 5–7, 2026 | 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. daily Fremont Park, Midtown Sacramento (16th & Q Streets)
Join us for Sacramento’s beloved free Labor Day weekend tradition! The 36th Annual Chalk It Up! Chalk Art & Music Festival transforms Fremont Park into a vibrant outdoor gallery as hundreds of local artists create colorful chalk murals on the sidewalks surrounding the park. Inside the park, enjoy live local music on the main stage, food and craft vendors, kids’ activities, a shady picnic area, and more. It’s a family-friendly celebration of the Sacramento arts community that’s been free to the public since 1991, supporting youth arts grants and programs across the region.
Admission is completely free. Come watch the art come to life, support local makers, and enjoy a classic Sacramento weekend.
