Juneteenth Celebration in Lompoc

Juneteenth is more than a date—it’s a roar of liberation, resilience, and community pride. This year, Lompoc’s big celebration on June 19th from 11 AM to 5 PM brings together Old Town and Centennial Park for a day honoring Black history and future dreams. Expect powerhouse keynote Eliot Davis, ’90s BaBiez blasting nostalgia, and a coalition of local orgs, leaders, and even the Chumash Foundation uniting for this historic moment. From Galveston’s 1865 freedom news to today’s cultural triumphs, this event proves how deeply Juneteenth roots run—and how fiercely we keep growing. Sponsored by Santa Barbara grants, with Lawanda Lyons-Pruitt as your guide, it’s a must-attend for anyone who believes in lifting up the past to power the present.
