Lodi Grape Festival & Harvest Fair

This was a really fun event, and I think we will make a tradition in the future. Lots of fun activities for kids, and families. They have lots of food, and beverage options. The margarita bar was one of my personal favorites. My kids loved the rides, live animals, and the art displays at different sections of the fair. Looking forward to returning, so great work Lodi!

My two girlfriends and I went to the Lodi Wine Festival. We had the time of our lives. Too much fun. There were some amazing vendors and the wines were perfect. From cougars to coffee to chocolate toffee and everything in between. Some wine had a off aftertaste but the Rosè were delicious. There was one that had the name Fruit and ______. I can't remember the second word for the title but it tasted like a sweet fruit. I would recommend the Lodi Wine Festival to those who love wine and want to have a great time.

I tagged along with a friend and never been before. It was very crowded but it was fun. You walk in and they give you a glass so you can go around and try as much wine as your heart desires. So many different types of wine and flavored olive oils to try. When I first walked in the police officers did a breathalyzer just for funzies and I thought that was cool. My only complaint would be the amount of food trucks .... There should def be way more available especially because there are so many people there. They had a lot of local venders selling candles, jewelry, and home decor. Many of these places didn't take apple pay but did debit card transactions.

OK. We were able to get in by donating 2 cans each before 2pm, so admission was $4 versus $18 for both of us. ($9 each) I'm glad because I do not feel this festival would have been worth the full admission. Lots of typical faire food....but not a trace of anything grape related other than wine. We walked around for about an hour or hour and a half and then left. I feel the security is a bit over the top for this festival as well, like some of the ones you see at State Fair. Food is also pretty pricey. $7 hot dogs. Might save myself the trip next year, but it wasn't bad for the price we paid.

Just returned from celebrating the inaugural year of the Golden State Pinball Festival (formally Pin-a-Go-Go) and the contrast from this venue vs the previous digs in Dixon are striking. So much more room to move round, 4 huge AIR CONDITIONED buildings, and just an all around terrific venue.When the only complaint after a three day expo was that the hand blowers weren't working well, you know this is a great place to have a festival.

Meh what can you say. Small town fair. Couple of buildings of vendors where you can grab some pens, flyswatters, balloons or other fair swag. Did pick up a nice ford logo hat by spinning a car at the ford booth. More chance booths than rides in the amusement area. $28 for a wristband. Really long lines at all the ticket booths. $5 to park and free entry on Friday until 5:00. Well saw a few people hadn't seen since last year and had a cold beer so all good. Seems like everyone in town will stop by before it is done.

It was a nice small fair, however paying for everything including just getting in added up like we were going to Disney. Understanding there is probably some liability insurance around a child's height...my daughter couldn't ride anything even with us going with her. Would be good for older kids but know you will spend a pretty penny.

I took my teenage son to the Golden State Pinball Festival here at the venue and was totally impressed. The space was perfect, just cool enough on a hot day and plenty of room to move about. We were really impressed and very comfortable for the entire weekend!

I've been to Lodi Grape Festival for years, whenever I was in town (Stockton), I'd attend the fair, this year, I was lucky enough to win tickets for two at work, so I went to fair with my besti friend. There are all kinds of things found at the fair: Foods, Entertainment, Ars & Crafts, Music and Carnival Games & Rides. This year, my goal was to try Turkey Leg that I missed at Disney World, but finding the one at State Fair delicious, but the one at Lodi Grape Festival very salty, so I brought it home after having few bites on it, as usual, I watched magician/joggler and hypnotic show before going home. I had fun. I'd attend the fair next year again if I nothings keeps my away from home.

I enjoy this local festival. It's great! However, $30 for a wrist band to ride the rides is ridiculous. Who really wants to go on Kids Night on Thursday? Most people have to work the next day. Kids have to go to school. And why on earth would I want to run into every person I have ever known in such a small town? No thanks. I wouldn't mind paying the high price for the wrist band if they allowed parents to go on the rides for free with their kids that require a parent to go with them. Do I really look like I want to ride a train around in circles with my 3 year old? Or walk through a "fun house" that is designed for small kids? No, not really. But I will do it for safety purposes. But to charge me to do this is a bit ridiculous. Otherwise, great festival in a small town. Oh & I only go for the tacos and the smiles on my kids faces.
