Lots to do in the Napa Valley in May & June
Summer days in Napa Valley are clear and sunny, the vineyards in full, green growth and the days long, leaving time for dining alfresco after wine-tasting. There is no excuse to spend time inside, when the valley hosts some of its most fun outdoor events.
BottleRock Napa – May 29th – 31st
If you’re looking for a little rock ‘n roll when you come to Napa Valley, the third annual BottleRock Napa Valley festival brings the world’s top touring artists on four different stages, while master sommeliers and celebrity chefs rub shoulders with guests in an intimate festival setting. Dozens of the region’s finest restaurateurs, vintners and brewers offer the best in food, wine, and craft brews, to create an authentic wine country experience for festival guests.
