Welcome to the 2014 Cambria Scarecrow Festival
Our Scarecrows have gone High-Tech.
Festival History
Use your smart phone or tablet to scan the QR code on the front cover of
this guide and you will be linked up with the official Cambria Scarecrow
Festival website. You will get real time information about all the
scarecrows and events throughout the entire month of October.
Thirty scarecrows kicked off the first annual Cambria Scarecrow Festival
in 2009. What those 30 scarecrows didn’t know then, was that they
were initiating one of the most artful and unique scarecrow festivals in
the US–and right here on the Central Coast. Over 450 scarecrows lined
Cambria’s business district in 2013. Our reputation has spread across the
country and the event now brings thousands of visitors to Cambria and
the Central Coast in October providing a boost to the local economy.
The Festival has even been mentioned in the LA Times, Chicago Tribune,
Huffington Post and on ABCNews.com.
In addition, scan the QR code on each
individual scarecrow and learn fascinating
details about the scarecrow in front of you.
Track your favorite scarecrows, rate them, or
post their picture to your Facebook friends.
Try putting together your own custom map
of your top scarecrows across Cambria and
San Simeon.

Hundreds of the most artistic, creative and lively scarecrows will line the
streets of Cambria and San Simeon for the entire Month of October. Many of
the scarecrows are created by businesses that portray their owners or the
products they offer to customers. Other scarecrows are made by locals who
compete with each other to be the most creative.
Where whimsy runs rampant
October offers a special delight in a month-long
Scarecrow Festival. October is Cambria’s warmest
and most magical month…the perfect time to stroll
on the boardwalk, explore the many trails and
wander through unique shops and galleries.
Check out the scarecrows and sample some of
the Central Coast’s best food and wines.
About Cambria
While Cambria is a perfect year-round escape, many believe that October
brings the best weather of the year. October’s warm sun brightens our
seaside village. From October 1-31 let the Cambria Scarecrow Festival
delight you while you visit our unique business district filled with shops,
boutiques, restaurants, and wine and beer tasting. Stroll our unspoiled
beaches or hike the many trails that wrap their way from the beach into
the pines. But the word is out, so make your Cambria hotel reservation soon.
