A week ago we published that we had a car show on the calendar to kick off summer. Whoops! It turns out that announcement was a bit premature.

The car show is an idea that has been raised a number of times by our fans over the years and it's on the table for this year. Actually, it's been on the table for a number of years, but getting it to all come together has been another story.

This is still something we're hoping to do this year, but until everything is confirmed and all the people who we need to work with are able to commit time and resources to make this a reality, we need to back away from promising that this will be the year it finally happens.

We are working on it and hope we'll have positive news to share soon.

Hi everyone and happy belated New Year from Downtown Campbell... or perhaps we should be wishing you a Happy Lunar New Year instead. We're right on time for that!

Either way, we wanted you to know that for the first time since 2020, we're expecting to have our complete and usual calendar of events back. We're glad to announce that for the first time in four years, we'll have a Bunnies and Bonnets Easter Parade again! The Beerwalk is also making a return to Downtown Campbell and to spice up the summer a bit, we're hoping to launch the first event of what will be an Annual Car Show.

Please take a look at our Festivities Page to see more upcoming highlights for 2023. Be sure to check back regularly as we'll be adding more as things develop throughout the year.

Those are just the highlights of course. For the complete listing of upcoming happenings both big and small, you'll want to keep an eye on our Events Calendar page. Our Events Calendar is updated regularly and there's usually new additions to it on a weekly basis.

Fans of outdoor parklets in Downtown Campbell, we have some good news and bad news. We'll give you the bad news first. The current temporary parklets program is scheduled to end at the end of March and the current parklets will be removed between March 28th and 31st.

Now for the good news. The temporary parklets will be replaced with a Semi-Permanent Parklet Program featuring approved parklet designs that will be more aesthetically pleasing and consistent with the personality of Downtown Campbell. Each parklet will come at a significant cost to build, so we don't know how many parklets will remain when all is said and done. It's possible that some businesses will opt to give up their currently granted temporary parklet space when the program ends.

Fortunately, the costs will be partially offset by a grant the City of Campbell created from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, but because there is grant money involved, certain procedural steps will need to be followed. For that reason, we can't say for sure when the semi-permanent parklets will be completed after the temporary ones are removed at the end of March.

Needless to say, we're hoping for as short of a disruption as possible. The parklet designs look great! There are two approved designs that each business can choose from. There's the "Water Tower" parklet with rounded edges or an "Orchard" parklet with a more squared look. Both designs can be built with or without an optional roof.
