In my general area there is the strawberry festival (this one always has the most clowns), garlic festival, asparagus festival, whole earth festival, greek food festival, oktoberfest, chinese new year (I go to the one in San Fran, more people used to using cash there), Various art and wine festivals, then there is my favorite which isn't so much of a festival as it is kind of a place that has an ongoing craft fair everyday for about 2 months, which is Apple Hill. There are always TONS of kids there who, have a tendency to get bored after looking at crafts before their parents do, so there is plenty of opportunity to make a lot of money doing face painting and balloon animals etc.
EDIT: oy a forgot a bunch, Gold Rush Days, Pacific Rim Festival, Jazz Jubilee, music in the park, and, how could I forget this one I was in one of the shows Sacramento Shakespeare Festival. Plus any number of Ren Faires going on almost every weekend in the summer months.
and I think that's all the ones I've been to personally, there are more I'm sure that I haven't been to.
