In an unexpected turn of events, the beloved California Garlic Festival is set to move from its long-time home in Stockton to the Merced County Fairgrounds. This decision marks a significant change for the festival, which has delighted garlic enthusiasts in San Joaquin County for many years.
Scheduled to take place from August 30 to September 1, the festival's relocation was announced by organizers who expressed their enthusiasm for the new venue. While the reasons for the move were not detailed, the festival is expected to bring its unique blend of activities and flavors to the Merced community this year.
The festival will continue to offer its traditional array of attractions, including monster truck shows, live entertainment, and music. Additionally, visitors can look forward to a carnival atmosphere complete with fresh-cooked garlic delicacies and a variety of vendors showcasing their goods.
