Lodi Grape Festival and Harvest Fair

Welcome to the 2004 Lodi Grape Festival!

On behalf of the Board of Directors and staff, I’d like to welcome everyone to the Lodi Grape Festival and Harvest Fair.

"It’s a Jungle Out There!" promises to be one of the best festivals ever.

As always, there are lots of fun activities for the whole family — live entertainment on four stages PLUS the all new "Pier 413" that features street performers reminiscent of Pier 39 in San Francisco.

Another new feature this year is the exciting "Mad Science: The Magic Behind the Movies" with five shows daily in Jackson Hall. And of course, we’ll have carnival rides, games, grape murals, wonderful food, and all the great things you’ve come to expect from the Grape Festival.

You’ll also see many improvements to our fairgrounds (check out the Bank of Lodi Stage area) and don’t forget our "Bucks for Books" scholarship fund-raiser, Taste of the Festival, on Wednesday, Sept. 15 — a "sneak peak" at this year’s fair.

There’s also a 5K run starting at the fairgrounds on Sunday, Sept. 19. Check our Web site at www.grapefestival.com so you don’t miss anything! Come out and see all your friends and enjoy all the wonderful activities at the 67th annual Lodi Grape Festival and Harvest Fair — I’ll see you there!
