Friends of Cayucos presents

September 17-19, 2026

The Friends of Cayucos brings together local nonprofit organizations, service clubs and community groups that share a commitment to preserving the character, history and community spirit of Cayucos.

This September, several of these organizations are joining forces to create the Endless Summer Festival, a three-day celebration filled with local history, family fun, live music, food, beer, wine and plenty of coastal charm.
