California Garlic Festival
The California Garlic Festival was started in 2022 in response to the cancellation of the Gilroy Garlic Festival. The new festival is sometimes considered a successor of the other, although they are organized by two unrelated promoters. The California Garlic Festival is organized by the Noceti Group, which also organizes the annual Asparagus Festival in Stockton. The event was held at San Joaquin County Fairgrounds in August 2022 and August 2023, and moved to Los Banos in August 2024.
