About SummerFest
First launched in 2022 as a joint partnership between the San Bernardino Symphony
and San Bernardino Valley College, SummerFest was built around the symphony’s already
spectacular annual summer concert series. In addition to bringing the symphony’s sizable
regular audience to the college campus, it showcases the college campus to the community
during the peak of the summer season. Over 2,500 visitors streamed in to SBVC’s stadium
for fun, food, music and fireworks in 2022. Conducted by Maestro Anthony Parnther,
the concert features internationally-renowned musicians and vocalists, and concludes
with a synchronized fireworks show that lights up the night sky above campus. In addition
to food and games, visitors can access information about enrollment and registration
throughout the event.
