Description
The Solano Stroll event is a ~ mile long street fair held once a year in Berkeley California on Solano Ave. There are over 500 vendor and non-profit booths. Attendees are ordinary folks from the Berkeley/SF-Bay area who may or may not have a technical background. It is, thus, a good opportunity to advertise Ubuntu to a general audience.
Date: Sunday, September 12th 2010
Time: 10am - 6pm
Location: Booth will be at 1223 Solano Ave., Berkeley
