The Clovis Chamber of Commerce is excited to announce the new date for the 2021, 83rd annual Big Hat Days event in Clovis, CA. Plans are underway for the Chamber to host a fun, safe, and special event this year on June 12 & 13, 2021.

The BIG Hat Days, a Clovis Chamber Event, is the largest two-day festival in Central California. Over 140,000 visitors fill the streets of Old Town to enjoy hundreds of craft and food booths.

For eighty-three years, Big Hat Days has served as a community showcase and a tribute to our western heritage and small-town character. We look forward to continuing this tradition in 2021.

Historically, Big Hat Days is held the first full weekend in April to start off Clovis Rodeo month. This year, due to the current state of the pandemic, we have decided to move the event to June to give our community a few extra months to ascend from the current pandemic gathering restrictions.

As we move closer to the date, we will continue to update our community on the event. We look forward to seeing our community in June.

Pets:

According to the city of Clovis ordinance, pets are NOT allowed at Old Town events. This includes those carried or pushed in a cart. Please respect your fellow visitors and leave Fido at home. There are many children in strollers who are at your pet’s eye and mouth level. Thank you.
