Take a Trip Back to Playland at the Beach
This year's DragonFest celebrates the golden age of San Francisco's Playland at the Beach. On warm weekends during in the 1940's and 50's, thousands of families delighted in the thrills of Playland's rides and amusements. To evoke the carnival-like feeling of Playland back in the 40s and 50s when it was San Francisco’s Coney Island, we will have some great penny arcade games, including a vintage photo booth, Skee-ball, and Zoltar the Fortune Teller, and some salt water taffy.

Come Dressed for Fun!
The beach/carnival theme invites informality, so please wear what you like! If you want to get into the Playland spirit, you might want to think 1940s and 50s day at the beach or on the boardwalk: sundresses, suspenders, vests, colorful bow-ties, seersucker, straw hats.
