California got its nickname because of the Gold Rush of 1848 when a miner found Gold in a river.This event attracted many immigrants to the U.S.Another event is that every once a year during the Spring where in the fields have Golden Poppies everywhere.This is 2 reasons why California got its nickname,"Golden State".

“The Golden State” has long been a popular designation for California and was made the official State Nickname in 1968. It is particularly appropriate since California's modern development can be traced back to the discovery of gold in 1848 and fields of golden poppies can be seen each spring throughout the state. The Golden State Museum is also the name of a new museum slated to open in late 1998 at the California State Archives in Sacramento. The museum's exhibits will bring to life the momentous events of California's history through a series of innovative, interpretive exhibits.
