The Annual May Festival, a traditional celebration in the Orange community, began in the 1880s. It was held in the Irvine Park area as a harvest festival each May by Orange and surrounding communities. The festival and parade were later moved into Orange and sponsored by the chamber of commerce. In 1960, the Orange Jaycees assumed sponsorship of this important annual community event.
