FANSFEST

From the very beginning, Fans Fest was created by fans, for the fans. People who simply wanted to protect, celebrate, and represent Oakland. What started as an idea rooted in love for the town and our teams has grown into something truly special.
Fans Fest was a beautiful reminder of what makes Oakland so powerful: community. To everyone who came out, brought their energy, shared their stories, and celebrated with us — thank you. You are the reason this exists. On behalf of the Oakland 68's and Oaklandish, we want to say thank you to our volunteers, sponsors, partner organizations, and every attendee who showed up to support. It takes a community to build something like this, and Oakland showed up in the best way possible. Fans Fest has always been about more than sports. It's about pride, resilience, and the people who continue to stand up for this city. Love to the town. Thank you for being part of it. This is Oakland.

THE POWER OF COMMUNITY ACTIVATION

The Oakland 68s are more than just a supporters' group; we are a movement that channels the passion of sports fans into meaningful, community-driven action. Our events are at the core of this mission, serving as powerful platforms for bringing the Oakland community together in support of our sports teams and our city. Our events demonstrate The ability of sports to transcend the field and serve as catalysts for broader social and community impact. By engaging in these large-scale events, we aim to energize the Oakland community, draw attention to important issues, and ensure that the spirit of Oakland sports remains strong and deeply rooted in our city's culture..
