The 21st Annual Julian Grape Stomp Festa is on September 5th, 2026, Saturday from 11am to 5pm at Menghini Winery in Julian.
Get ready and be excited in 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!
Julian’s Grape Stomp is a great way to spend a Saturday and this year’s is shaping up to be one of the best. With eleven local wineries offering sips to sample, a wide variety of food and shopping opportunities, great Italian music provided by Roman Holiday, Bocce Ball contests, a “Lucy Look-Alike” contest, the ever popular “Trash My Wedding Dress” event and, undoubtedly, a little extemporaneous dancing here and there, this will be a party to remember!
Treat yourself to a VIP experience that includes reserved parking, admission, a fast-pass to the stomping vat, comfortable seating in the VIP tent and a delicious meal from one of the many food vendors for only $50. General admission tickets are $15.
