How Weird Street Faire
Howard St at 2nd St,
San Francisco, California


Come celebrate peace, creativity, and the start to the 2018 festival season!
Join us as we make history, again. Disco isn’t dead, it just got weird.
After 11,657.27 years of civilization, we all need more weird.

In the not too far away future, we shall harken back to a simpler time, a funkier time, a more colorful time. It was a time of bellbottoms and big collars. A time of big cars and bigger hair. A time when lava lamps lit the land, and rocks were pets. Remember when fun was really fun? Remember when life was simple and easy? Remember three Thursdays ago at 10am?

The Disco Ball Inferno - a powerful theme based on a true story. The greatest story ever danced! Join us as we do the time warp back to the 1970s. It’s easy to do, put on a colorful costume and take a jump to the left…

“The Disco Ball Inferno” will be a hymn to high weirdness, and a tribute to all things shiny. This year’s theme of “That Hot Disco Thing” is a parody of the 1970s, when modern communal dancing became mainstream and DJs took over the world. It was the best of times, and the worst of times, but mostly somewhere in the middle. “Disco Days Part 2 - The Weird Year” will take place in the heart of the emerging Downtown by the Bay. Surrounded by glistening new towering buildings, “The Incredibly Strange Adventures of the Ball of Many Colors” will be a sanctuary of weirdness in a rapidly gentrifying world. Creativity will flow through the streets of San Francisco during “Insert Theme Name Here”. Prepare yourselves, on May 6th the greatest street faire in the galaxy collides with “Great Disco Balls and the Beanbag Factory”.

How Weird is a star in the emerging ultra-conscious potentially semi-transformational independent event movement (or EUCPSTIEM). An amazing cutting-edge technicolor testament to the future and the past and, of course, the present. So woke we shine like a mirrored ball. Or as they say on the flip side, one wild and crazy faire!

Modern Dance Cultue 1.0 (which peaked during the Summer of Love) was an age of experimentation and exploration. Modern Dance Culture 2.0 (as disco is uncommonly called) was an unsuccessful attempt to reach the potential of dance that we now take for granted in the late stages of Modern Dance Culture 3.0 (or EDM). Disco wasn’t the dance we wanted, but it was the dance we got. And we would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!

Cost: $15 - $20
