Returning in 2022 – Please join us as we celebrate our 25th anniversary of the Julian Grape Stomp Festa! We are excited to be continuing the old-world tradition of kicking off your shoes, rolling up your pant legs and letting tons of blessed grapes squish beneath your feet! Regular Admission – $20.00 Includes Wine Glass (for those 21+) and Stomping & Great Entertainment Tastings are $1.00 each and are not included in the admission price. For 2022 – These are important things to note to help you enjoy your visit Bring cash (small bills), the internet is spotty at this location and connecting to pay with cards can be very time consuming. Even if you are 99, you need to bring your ID. Licensing for the event requires all IDs must be checked in order to get the “21+” wrist band, which is required for tastings. Feel Free to bring your own lawn chairs. Julian’s Grape Stomp Festa is a great way to spend a Saturday. We are excited to return in 2022. With local wineries offering sips to sample, a wide variety of food and shopping opportunities, great music and undoubtedly, a little extemporaneous dancing here and there, this will be a party to remember! Better Yet, make a weekend visit out of it. Julian Grape Stomp Festa on Facebook
