Ester Fest is a family-friendly fundraiser to help raise revenue for the maintenance and continuous improvement of the Ester Community Park. The spacious lawn of the park has lots of room to spread out. Attendees are encouraged to bring a chair or blanket and enjoy live music on the biggest outdoor stage and best grass in Fairbanks, and to check out the vendors and booths from local organizations. Concessions and sales also benefit the community park.
