Details: One of the state's more scenic wine festivals: Santa Cruz Mountains wineries pour alongside more than 100 artists, with live music, food and the Monterey Bay as the backdrop. Hosted and organized by the Capitola-Soquel Chamber of Commerce, this treasured annual tradition draws thousands to Capitola for a weekend of fine art, local wine, delicious food, and lively entertainment—all just steps from the beach. More than a celebration, the festival is a major fundraiser supporting the work of the Capitola-Soquel Chamber—a 501(c)(6) nonprofit organization—along with local schools and community groups who help make the magic happen.
