2025 Valley of the Moon Vintage Festival on the Sonoma Plaza
8:00am - 4:00pm
The Valley of the Moon Vintage Festival is a time-honored celebration of Sonoma Valley’s grape harvest, deep-rooted community spirit, and rich history. Since 1897, this cherished tradition has brought together winemakers, grape growers, and visitors in the historic Sonoma Plaza to honor the region’s winemaking legacy and agricultural heritage—the very foundation of California wine. Through a weekend of exceptional food, world-class wine, and heartfelt fellowship, we invite you to experience the essence of Sonoma Valley. Proceeds from the festival benefit the Sonoma Valley Vintners & Growers Foundation, supporting the people and land that make this renowned wine region thrive.
The daytime festival opens with a 5k race and a fun run for all ages before the fun continues on the historic Sonoma Plaza with a tried-and-true Sonoma Valley community event, open to the public and complimentary to attend.
