Since 1897, the Valley of the Moon Vintage Festival has brought the Sonoma community together to honor the harvest season. Each year, winemakers, grape growers, artisans, and locals gather at the Historic Sonoma Plaza to celebrate the region’s rich winemaking legacy and agricultural heritage in the birthplace of California wine. This year marks a special milestone—the 200th Anniversary of Sonoma Valley Wine: the Year of the Vintner. Two centuries have passed since the first wine grapes were harvested here, and the festival commemorates this moment with community-wide festivities filled with food, wine, shopping from local artists, live music, and tradition. More than just a celebration, the Valley of the Moon Vintage Festival continues its legacy of giving back. Proceeds from the weekend benefit the Sonoma Valley Vintners & Growers Foundation, supporting programs that strengthen and sustain the community. Raise a glass, support local makers, and be part of a timeless Sonoma tradition at the Valley of the Moon Vintage Festival.
