Here’s why Grizz Fest stands out:
1. Student-Led Energy & Engagement Every game booth and performance is run by GBHS students, sports teams, or clubs. They manage operations, prizes, and performances, giving them real-world leadership experience—and making the event feel truly grassroots and spirited. 2. Attractions for All Ages Bounce houses and slides thrill kids. Teenagers enjoy photo booths and live music, while adults savor local food vendors and mingle in shaded lounge zones. Dunk tanks and prize booths bring laughter—for all skill levels. 3. A Purpose Beyond Fun Funds raised go directly into a $1.8M campus modernization program benefitting students for years—modern library spaces, updated athletic facilities, campus tech upgrades, and beautification projects. Grizz Fest is fundraising through participation, not ticket sales alone. 4. A Community Hub More than just school families attend—neighbors, alumni, and local businesses come out to support and enjoy the carnival. It’s a morning that fosters connection across the community. 5. Perfect Timing & Location Held just before the school year – it’s a great way for incoming freshmen and returning students to reconnect. The venue—GBHS Quad, gym, and cafeteria—is walkable and secure with easy access and parking.
Thousands attend each year, so arrive early for wristbands and prime game activities. Advance online ticketing helps streamline entry.
Grizz Fest Carnival is school pride and carnival magic rolled into a single morning. Join the fun, support the future of GBHS, and celebrate community spirit in Granite Bay.
