Livermore Festival 2025

Join us where cobblestone nostalgia meets clinking glasses. The Downtown Livermore's Street Fest brings vintage spirit to modern merriment.

The Livermore Downtown Street Fest started as a charming local celebration decades ago but quickly blossomed into one of the Bay Area's most beloved events. The Livermore Valley American Viticultural Area is one of California's oldest wine regions, and it shaped the state's wine industry. Today, the festival presents not just award-winning vintages but also live music, hand-crafted goods, and the unmistakable spirit of community.

Every spring, the historic downtown Livermore streets come alive with flavor, creativity, and connection. Bring family and friends for a wonderful time on May 17 and 18!
