Glorious Garlic Festival: Two Days of Lakefront Food and Music in Geneva This August

Every August, Geneva's lakefront turns into something you can smell from the parking lot — in the best possible way. The Glorious Garlic Festival brings 50+ farms and vendors to the water's edge for two days of garlic-forward food, live music, cooking demos, and local wine and beer. It's the kind of festival that starts as a novelty and ends with you filling a bag with seed garlic you didn't know you needed.

Date: Saturday–Sunday, August 1–2, 2026 Time: Saturday 10:30 AM – 6:00 PM / Sunday 10:30 AM – 5:00 PM Location: Geneva Lakefront, Geneva, NY Cost: $5 general admission (children 12 and under free)

Tickets are available through Eventbrite; VIP options with additional amenities are also offered. Visit gloriousgarlicfestival.com for full vendor lineup, music schedule, and ticket links.
