📣 Important Update from the Salinas Valley Food & Wine Festival! After over a decade of celebrating the rich culinary and viticultural heritage of the Salinas Valley, the Festival Board of Directors has announced a pause in the annual event. The festival will not be held in 2025, as organizers take this time to reimagine and enhance the experience to hopefully relaunch in 2026. "We are taking a look at all of the components of this great community event including the location, logistics, format, and volunteers needed to host the event," said Event Chair Joel Panzer. "We hope that we can bring the event back in 2026." For updates and more information, please visit salinasvalleyfoodandwine.com and follow us on social media. We appreciate your continued support and look forward to celebrating with you soon! (fb)
