Festival of the Vine was an amazing weekend of good wine and beer, delicious food, and incredible music. We are so grateful for each and every one of you who stopped by and supported our local wineries and restaurants. Thank you to our volunteers, Penrose Brewing Company, Blue Peak Tents, Floods Royal Flush, the City of Geneva, each one of our sponsors, and the 12 restaurants who participated.

Lines were long, but that didn’t stop anyone from having fun. I loved seeing how many people were dancing up front while the bands performed. Some new restaurants served at Festival of the Vine for the first time, such as Mosaic Kitchen & Cocktails and Paixao Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse. What a better time to try new food than at Festival of the Vine, where you can get a little bit of everything!

Geneva Chamber’s next event is the Cocoa & Chocolate Crawl on Saturday, November 7. Our next festival is the Christmas Walk on Friday, December 4, and Holiday House Tours on Friday, December 4, and Saturday, December 5. Volunteer positions for the Holiday House Tour will be available soon on our website. Tickets for the tour go on sale mid-October.

Fun fact-I just finished my bag of popcorn from Kernel’s that I got while at Festival of the Vine while writing this!
