Simi Valley’s Favorite Festival Returns This Saturday (May 24) In Simi Valley: Here’s What You Need to Know About Happy Face 2025
(CLAIR | Simi Valley, CA) — The sun is out, the stage is set, and the Happy Face Music Festival is ready to take over Rancho Santa Susana Community Park this Saturday, May 24. Voted Simi Valley’s Favorite Festival by The Acorn, this one-day event brings together everything that makes the Simi Valley shine: great music, good food, and a whole lot of fun.
Hosted by the Rotary Club of Simi Sunrise, the festival is more than just a concert. It’s a kickoff to summer, a celebration of community, and a fundraiser for important causes.
A Music Lineup Built for Fun
This year’s music lineup leans into the fun and familiar. Festival-goers can expect a full day of high-energy performances by some of the best tribute and party bands around.
The 2025 lineup includes:
- Fast Times, bringing the best of 1980s new wave and rock
- Wanted, paying tribute to Bon Jovi’s biggest hits
- Boys of Summer, stepping in with classic Eagles tracks
- The Yacht Groove, playing smooth yacht rock favorites
- The Ultimate Rock Band, delivering a power-packed rock set
Whether you’re a lifelong rocker or just love a good singalong, the mix of eras and styles makes this lineup perfect for all ages.
It’s More Than Just Music
Happy Face is designed to offer something for everyone. Families can spend the day at the Family Fun Zone, with games and kid-friendly activities. Adults can kick back, enjoy an ice cold beverage and take in the sun all day long.
Festival favorites like bbq, pizza, tacos, and a lineup of local food trucks will keep everyone fueled throughout the day. Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, or pop-up tents and settle in for the afternoon. The vibe is relaxed, inclusive, and designed to make you smile.
Kids 12 and under get in free, making this a great choice for families looking for something local, affordable, and memorable.
Giving Back with Every Ticket
What sets Happy Face apart from other festivals is its purpose. 100% of proceeds go to charity. That includes support for student scholarships, youth leadership programs, food assistance, and international humanitarian projects.
So while you’re enjoying the music, you’re also helping others—and that’s part of what makes this event so special.
