The 35th annual Encinitas Spring Street Faire returned to Coast Highway 101 April 28 and 29, running the length of the thoroughfare from D to J Streets. There was international food, live music, rides for children and a beer garden. More than 400 vendors were in attendance, with an emphasis on arts, antiques and handmade crafts. Ongoing since 1983, the two-day fair in the spring draws crowds exceeding 100,000. “Each year we see between 40,000 and 50,000 people each day,” said Irene Pyun, executive director of the Encinitas 101 MainStreet Association.
