Julian Tasting Rooms offering samples of their wine, beer, hard cider, mead or craft cocktails

On Saturday, July 27th, 2019, the Julian Chamber of Commerce is co-hosting the 5th Annual ‘Sip of Julian’. The Sip features many of Julian’s alcoholic beverage purveyors. Proof that we’re not just about apples and great pie, we have growers and producers of wine, craft beer, mead (honey wine), craft cocktails, and delicious hard cider, offering up a sampling of their delicious hand-crafted specialties.

As in previous years, the event runs from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and gives tasters time to enjoy their samples paired with small bites at each venue, take in the scenery, and spend a relaxing day enjoying the sights and sounds of Julian. Ticket holders have the options of a self-guided day throughout Julian to visit the various participating locations, or to purchase a ticket with shuttle service, so that you may relax and let the comfortable vans take you from place to place in a flexible way that allows you to enjoy the event.

“Summer is a beautiful time in Julian and this event allows you to sample the region’s fine crafted beverages, taste gourmet bites, and explore the backcountry.” “It’s a perfect excuse to book a quaint room and make it a weekend adventure!”

Sales are limited and the event sold out last year. The first 125 people to sign up will receive a special Sip of Julian commemorative glass. Age verification, along with distribution of maps and logo glasses begins at 10:00 a.m. the day of the event at the Julian Chamber of Commerce located at Town Hall, 2129 Main Street.

This event is a fundraising benefit for Julian’s Annual Country Christmas and Tree Lighting Celebration happening Saturday, November 30th, 2019. This annual event ushers in the holiday season with music, dancers, lighting the town Christmas tree, and culminates with the arrival of Santa & Mrs. Claus to listen to all the kids Christmas wishes.

Julian is an historic community located in the San Diego County Mountains at an elevation of 4200 feet. Quaint shops and restaurants, unique bed and breakfasts, hotels, and lodges all welcome visitors to enjoy a getaway in the country. The Sip of Julian is a great opportunity to spend a couple of nights in Julian and enjoy exploring the area the day before or after the event.

This is a 21 and Over Event

Tickets are $35 for the event and
$50 for Event with Shuttle Service from WTT Transportation

Starting at 4pm on Saturday, August 3, 2019, the Julian communities will host a family friendly, FREE event at Jess Martin County Park, 2955 Highway 79, Julian, CA.   We provide FREE shuttles between Julian and Jess Martin County Park to help you comfortably enjoy our event which celebrates Julian by day and by night.

Meet the animal ambassadors including Boo the Barn Owl, Huxley the Harris Hawk,  snakes and lizards, Project Wildlife’s screech owl, and the Canid Center’s domesticated foxes, among others.

We have over 35 exhibitors with hands on environmental activities and “touch” tables, demonstrations on building animal safety pens with the Julian Mountain Lion Project, Park Rangers and local outdoor guides to engage you on the many resources for hiking, star gazing and outdoor enjoyment for every age.  Photograph your family in Wildlife Research Institute’s replica full size eagle’s nest, complete with eaglet puppets.  Many more wonderful exhibitors will be there to welcome you to Julian Natural Wonderfest, including nightscape photographers that will  amaze you with photos of the dark sky that envelops all of us in the Julian area.

Our stage events will get you singing and dancing, and will present speakers who will share their love of Julian’s natural habitat, and our remarkable dark skies, with you.

The Kids’ Corner is particularly fun for the kids – scavenger hunt, music and games, a face painter, and great interactive events sponsored by the Julian Branch Library.

We even have a food truck at the event this year!

As night falls, the subdued ground lighting and glow-in-the-dark bracelets and necklaces will provide color and a beautiful setting as our astronomers from Julian Dark Sky Network and Curiosity Peak, take you on a magical tour through the Milky Way.

Our local organizers include Julian Dark Sky Network, Volcan Mountain Foundation, Julian Woman’s Club, Wildlife Research Institute and County of San Diego Department of Parks and Recreation.  The volunteers from these organizations are happy to share their love of animals, the environment, and dark skies with you.

Make great memories and experience Julian’s natural wonders by day and by night!

Please join us as we celebrate our 23nd anniversary of the Julian Grape Stomp Festa! We are excited to be continuing the old-world tradition of kicking off your shoes, rolling up your pant legs and letting tons of blessed grapes squish beneath your feet!

A new exciting addition this year; the proceeds go to The Inner North Star PTSD Retreat Center, here in Julian. Through fundraising events like this Veterans and First Responders can go to a no-cost PTSD retreat to receive the support they deserve. You will be able to purchase a “Stomping out PTSD” T-Shirt, and immediately following your time stomping grapes in the vat, customize it with your own footprints!

Julian’s Grape Stomp Festa is a great way to spend a Saturday and this year is shaping up to be one of our best. With local wineries, breweries, and cideries offering sips to sample, a wide variety of food and shopping opportunities, great music and undoubtedly, a little extemporaneous dancing here and there, this will be a party to remember!

You may purchase tickets online, or, at the gate. VIP Tickets expected to sell out and it recommended that you purchase in advance online.

Treat yourself to a VIP experience that includes convenient reserved parking, event admission, a fast-pass to the stomping vat at noon, comfortable seating under the VIP tent in the shade, a free wine glass, two free glasses of sparkling wine or two wine tickets, a cheese and cracker plate, and snacks

All proceeds will be donated to their nonprofit, enabling veterans and first responders to attend the retreat at no cost.
You can also donate directly on their website at www.innernorthstarptsdretreatcenter.org

All donations are tax-deductible and greatly appreciated.
Please join us in an effort to Stomp out PTSD.
