Tiny homes, ADUs and minimalist lifestyles will take center stage at TinyFest California 2025, set for March 8-9 at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. The annual event, which celebrates the growing tiny living movement, offers attendees a chance to explore a wide range of small-space dwellings while learning from experts in the field.
The festival will feature an extensive display of tiny houses, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), van conversions and other alternative housing options. Visitors will have the opportunity to tour these unique spaces and meet builders and designers who specialize in maximizing function within a small footprint.
Whether attendees are serious about downsizing or simply curious about the lifestyle, the event aims to provide inspiration and practical information.
In addition to home tours, TinyFest will host a lineup of expert speakers, panel discussions, and meet ups covering topics such as sustainable living, tiny home investments, community-building, and real-life experiences from those who have embraced a minimalist lifestyle.
Organizers say the goal is to provide attendees with a wealth of knowledge and inspiration to apply to their own lives.
The Simple Living Marketplace is another key attraction. It features vendors offering products and services aimed at minimizing clutter, reducing debt, and decreasing one’s carbon footprint. From eco-friendly household items to professional ADU consultants, the marketplace provides practical solutions for those looking to simplify their living spaces.
Beyond the educational components, TinyFest fosters a sense of community among like-minded individuals. The event includes live music, entertainment, and various meet-up opportunities, creating a vibrant atmosphere where attendees can connect, share experiences, and build relationships.
This communal aspect is central to the festival’s mission of empowering people to maximize their lives while minimizing their environmental impact.
Organizers say the event attracts a diverse crowd, including those looking to downsize, travel full-time, or find creative solutions to housing challenges.
