    This is a fun, family-friendly, pet-friendly (pets must be on leashes) event. Conveniently located…read morenot too far off of the 99 Freeway in Ripon. Well organized. Plenty parking. Lots of volunteers to direct traffic. Rows of booths with interesting things/services. Lots of food trucks that offer a large variety of delicious options for a hungry tummy. A nice area with picnic tables available. Large area with carnival rides. Fun!

    This Festival (compared to many others) was barely better than nothing…read more.. 1. Way too cold. The temps were in the 40s right after sunset, and the vendors were there until 8:00 pm (which was nice for people who work nights), but it really should be a bit later in the season for warmer temps. 2. The dust from the dirt parking lot spread out through the whole Festival. 3. The extremely bright lights pointing straight at you the whole way from the parking area into the Festival just made it really hard to see anything. They need more lights, higher up, pointing down like street lights. Or those big lamps they use in construction sites. 4. No Tilt A Whirl in the Carnival. 5. No Onion Rings, or Deep Fried Artichoke Hearts, or Thai Ice Tea, or anything else we normally get at Fairs and Festivals anywhere. 6. The Vendor Booths were OK, but a lot of them had cheap LED lights that do not light up things on tables. Strings of patio lights would be perfect hanging around the edges, inside the tents. They even make them with solar batteries.

    BACON BACON BACON!!!!!…read more Fantastic event and something I will make time to attend every year!!! If you are a bacon lover, take some time and check this out.

    This review is for Baconfest on Saturday Father's Day 2016. I bought tickets back in January when…read morethe event was first announced. I didn't realize the $25 ticket price didn't include anything other than admission. I was expecting a glass with the event name on it, a beer, some bacon, etc. I have coordinated large events and when you buy in bulk, you can get the price per item super low ($1.50 for a pint glass). I would recommend making that part of the price if they attempt this festival again. It took us about an hour to park at 10:30 am and we had quite a hike to the front gate. Nothing was clearly labeled and we stood in the wrong line for a long awhile. Someone showed up and started grabbing our printed tickets in her hand and yelled at us to "go have fun!" She didn't even look at our tickets or scan them. We spotted an information booth handing out brochures for the event. I saw a sign that said we needed tickets for "Bacon Alley", and then I saw the line for tickets, wow. It had to be 100 deep. Someone walking by said there was another line inside that was shorter, so we headed there. Well, the line in BaconAlley was even longer. I knew that couldn't be right, so I consulted the map and spotted a 3rd ticket booth near the main stage. We walked, again, to that booth which was much shorter. However after buying $40 of tickets, the first food vendor I went to didn't take tickets, only cash. *sigh* We headed back to Bacon Alley. The line for bacon was insane. We couldn't even find the end. So, we decided to go for a beer. They had 12 craft brews on tap and although the line was long, it moved pretty quickly. We sipped on our beers & checked out the car show. Thank goodness there was a breeze. The long lines and lack of shade were tiring. I got in line for the bacon mac & cheese and bourbon bacon shooter. They were pretty good but not great. I wanted to see Guy, so we again trekked back to the main stage. It was tough to hear what was going on but Guy was trying to keep it fun. A guy next to me said he had waited over an hour and a half for the bacon bouquet. No thanks. We were ready to leave but we were stuck with over $20 in tickets. We walked around and chose the maple bacon cupcake, cookie and 2 more beers. A chef was doing a homemade sausage demo, and there was a tiny bit of shaded seating for that. We got really lucky and found two seats. I enjoyed the presentation. We noticed a wine room on the way out and wanted to buy a bottle to go but were turned away, as they were only taking tickets. I was not getting back in that line - to get into another line. We were tired of masses of people, tickets, and lines, so we left at 2:00. From what I understand, I'm glad we left early. We had to drive around a field but we were able to get onto the freeway pretty easily after that. So, my thoughts are, The good: The demo/education stage. Add more of them. The maple bacon cupcake. The craft beer tent. Guy's enthusiasm. The car show. The kid areas looked great but we don't have any little ones, so we didn't go into them. The bad: The bacon bouquet tent - in a poor spot and under staffed. The lines. The unclear and confusing tickets/no ticket policies. The $25 ticket price.
