The 38th San Joaquin Asparagus Festival will be returning to Stockton this month for three days.
From April 12 to 14, visitors can make their way to the San Joaquin County Fairgrounds to experience carnival rides, games, monster trucks, events, music and food that includes deep-fried asparagus and asparagus ice cream. Additionally, there will be train rides, a petting zoo, pony rides, and a Miss San Joaquin Asparagus Festival Scholarship Pageant.
Last year, long lines formed for guests wanting to try the various asparagus offerings.
Single-day admissions are $15 for adults ages 18-64; and $10 for children ages 6-17, seniors, and military members with ID. Children ages 5 and under are allowed free entry.
