GiniFest Armenian Wine & Spirits Festival

GiniFest Armenian Wine & Spirits Festival is an open-air street festival on the 200 North Orange Street block in downtown Glendale, California, on Sunday, October 11, 2026, from 3 to 9 PM, and the 2026 edition is the ninth annual. Organized by Armenian Arts, it pours Armenian and international wines and spirits alongside live performances through the day, food vendors and artisan booths selling handmade and design pieces, and it draws thousands of visitors each year.

General admission is $100 and includes the beverage tastings; food and merchandise are purchased separately. Glendale has the largest Armenian community in the United States, and the festival is one of the few places in the country to taste a broad range of Armenian producers, from Areni-based reds to fruit brandies, in one afternoon. The block is a short walk from the Glendale Galleria and Americana at Brand.
