ABOUT THE CALAVERAS GRAPE STOMP & HARVEST CELEBRATION
This annual celebration of the Calaveras Wine Region Grape Harvest takes place on the first Saturday of October at Murphys Community Park. Hosted by the Calaveras Winegrape Alliance, this event started in 1993 and is now the Oldest & Largest Grape Stomp in California! This community event has become an annual tradition for families and friends to gather for a weekend of wine fun. 120 Stomp Teams of two compete for the title of "Top Stompers" on the big stage and for a good cause as a portion of the auction proceeds benefit community groups and the high school scholarships program. Attendees enjoy wine by the glass and bottle, food vendors and entertainment as well as the annual Grape Stomp Auction where winning bidders can take home incredible wine packs and adventure certificates. Feeney Park also hosts the "Gold Rush Street Faire" the same day featuring Live Music, Art & Craft Booths, and Family-Fun Activities.
GOLD RUSH STREET FAIRE
Historic downtown Murphys will once again close its Main Street for the Annual Gold Rush Street Faire hosted by the Feeney Park Foundation. The charm and longevity of this unique Gold Rush town lends itself as a perfect backdrop to a festive, colorful, and successful Faire. Main Street fills with over 100 booths of quality arts and crafts, antiques, handcrafted goods, jewelry, clothing, collectibles, and food booths, in addition to Murphys’ multitude of one-of-a-kind specialty shops.
2024 GRAPE STOMP RECAP
