Willits Frontier Days Street Dance & Carnival

The night sky overlooking the Jack Tharp Arena glows bright with the lights from the Johnston Amusements carnival every year.

The carnival offers rides, food and fun for kids and adults.

Classics like the Gravitron and the Zipper give those hoping for a thrill a run for their cotton candy and carnival games including darts, ping pong balls for goldfish and more test the skills of all attendees.

Everyone is welcome to enjoy tasty food including popcorn, candy apples, ice cream, and treats as they stroll through the clean and well lit midway.

Johnston Amusements has been bringing these quality family entertainment options to Central and Northern California fairs and festivals for over 50 years spanning three generations.

The street dances and band performances give the older crowd a chance to hang out with friends or make new ones while dancing the night away to DJ or band-made country tunes. The Beer Garden offers cowboys and cowgirls a watering hole, and something for the youngsters to long for. Dances are held at the Rodeo Grounds usually from 9 pm until midnight.
