The Carlsbad Village Association published an Oct. 18 preview of the Carlsbad Village Street Faire, scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 1, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Chamber of Commerce-hosted event was advertised with vendor booths, food, live music and family activities. Association announcement

The planned marketplace included arts and crafts, gifts, antiques, clothing, jewelry and specialty merchandise. The announcement also listed an international food court and a beer garden.

With parking expected to be limited, the association promoted free shuttles running approximately every 15 minutes from the Shoppes at Carlsbad near the former Sears location and from Poinsettia COASTER Station on Avenida Encinas.

Visitors were encouraged to use bicycles and available racks, but the notice said there would be no bicycle-valet service. These were advance arrangements for November, not a report that the faire had already taken place.
