150+ artists, beer and wine, food, and entertainment on three stages. The Art and Wine Faire is one of the Peninsula’s Premier Fall Festivals, attracting over 40,000 people every year. This outdoor event is free and is perfect for families. Attendees can enjoy live entertainment, great artwork, fine wine, craft beer, cocktails, delicious food and more. The City of San Carlos and the Parks & Recreation Foundation of San Carlos have partnered to present this anticipated fall festival.
During the first weekend of October, parts of San Carlos Avenue and Laurel Street are closed and turned into a big weekend market where all sorts of products and services are displayed in booths, like artisan food and wine, art and novelty items, unique services like chiropractic therapy, furniture-making, volunteer programs, and others – practically anything special in San Carlos which they’d like to present to the community. Artists will showcase their original work which includes pottery, ceramics, watercolor and oil paintings, photography, jewelry, woodwork and more. People are also encouraged to join communal activities, like mural paintings and others.
The event offers two full days of entertainment for people of all ages. Specialty food booths will also be available for attendees to enjoy. Throughout the weekend, musicians and bands are lined up to take the different stages scattered in the area while people of all ages would be dancing to their favorite tunes. The Family Fun Zone is a great place for children to enjoy various activities and live entertainment.
This faire is also a great way for start-ups to introduce themselves to people. This faire, like other annual events in San Carlos, would not be possible without the strength and spirit of the volunteers.
