The event page calls it San Ramon’s 37th annual Art & Wind Festival.

The city’s entertainment application says performances are planned across four stages, while a city post on Nextdoor lists three live entertainment stages.

City materials describe it as a regional event with most entertainment acts and all food vendors drawn from the Tri-Valley. (sanramon.ca.gov) This year’s public information push started with a city news update published April 17, more than a month before opening day, alongside directions, parking, and vendor information pages. Vendor and entertainment applications closed between March 6 and April 3, indicating most of the lineup and booth roster were set weeks in advance.

The city says festival parking is available at four off-site lots for $10, while valet bike parking on the Iron Horse Trail will be free and accessible parking will be available at San Ramon City Hall. (sanramon.ca.gov) The city’s event pages direct visitors to separate schedule, vendor, and parking links rather than a single program release, suggesting final day-by-day planning will be spread across those pages as the weekend approaches. The festival opens in Central Park at 11 a.m. on Sunday, May 24. (sanramon.ca.gov)
