The Chamber is very excited to bring back the Tehachapi Mountain Festival this year on August 20-22, an event Tehachapi looks forward to each year. We are still dealing with the effects of COVID-19, as many event organizers are, and unfortunately there will be a change in activities this year. The carnival will not be part of the festival activities. Numerous annual events that were canceled in 2020 have not been rescheduled for 2021 in California, which has put the carnival company in the difficult position of securing work outside of California to keep their business alive and they will not be returning until October.

The Chamber has rescheduled the carnival for October 15-17 and we have teamed up the Linda Carhart and the Tehachapi Apple Festival, which has been moved to the same weekend to create a larger community event.

The good news is that all other Mountain Festival events scheduled for August 20-22, 2021 will take place as usual: VFW live music and dinner, PRCA Rodeo, Mountain Gallop 5K, Kids Clubs Pancake Breakfast, Parade, Arts and Crafts Fair, Live Entertainment and Thunder on the Mountain Car Show.

Thank you for your support and understanding and we look forward to seeing you at the Tehachapi Mountain Festival.
