While the first Powwow on the Barona reservation was held in 1970, it is thought that the idea for our Powwow began in the late 1950s and early 1960s, when a handful of Barona Tribal members belonged to a group called Pacific Coast Indian Club. It was one of the only Powwows in Southern California and was held at the Orange County Fairgrounds.
A group of Tribal members interested in bringing a Powwow to the San Diego region approached the Barona Tribal leadership and asked if there could be a Powwow at Barona. The Tribe agreed and the first Powwow in this region was hosted at the traditional gathering grounds, which is where the Barona Cultural Center & Museum is located today. What began as a modest gathering has grown into a three-day event with over 300 dancers and 10,000 people historically in attendance.
The 2005 NAU Pow Wow is scheduled for Sat., April 9th and Sun., April 10th at the NAU Skydome. The week of April 4th to the 10th is the annual NAU Native American Heritage Week.
