Moorpark's hometown parade and street fair on downtown High Street. Free.

Moorpark Country Days is the city's hometown parade and street fair on historic High Street in downtown Moorpark. The 2026 edition is on Saturday, October 3. The City of Moorpark lists it as a co-sponsored community event.

The day starts with a parade of local groups down High Street, followed by a street fair with live entertainment. It is free and family-oriented, and a good way to see Moorpark's small-town downtown at its busiest.

What to expect
