The story
About this festival.
A Vintage Affair Grape Stomp Festival is a 21-and-over harvest party in Bicentennial Park in Franklin, Tennessee, on Saturday, October 10, 2026, from 4 to 7 PM, and the 2026 edition is the 16th annual. The centerpiece is a tournament-style grape stomp: teams of five go barefoot head to head to collect the most juice for a trophy and a case of wine. Around it, local vendors pour wine tastings, craft and domestic beer, signature cocktails and a new beer garden, with food and a DJ.
General admission is $75 to watch and taste from the sidelines; a $500 team sponsorship admits five people and enters them in the competition. The festival is run by A Vintage Affair, a Williamson County nonprofit that raises money for local women's and children's charities through wine events. Bring ID. Franklin is 20 miles south of Nashville, and Bicentennial Park sits along the Harpeth River on the edge of downtown.
