This year’s Wine and Art Fest is taking it up a notch! We will have more on street art offerings and live music. We will continue to host our wineries within the shops to allow for and encourage exploration of our wonderfully unique small businesses and art galleries. Merchants will be offering food pairings designed to highlight the wines they serve and our local restaurants will be available for dinners as well. Click here to learn about ticket availability.
Main Street closes to traffic and the merchants greet young and old alike at the doors of their stores with candy in this time honored tradition. The smiles are big and plenty on this afternoon and the cuteness factor is off the charts.
There will be music and a costume contest at the Bell Tower hosted by the local Active 20-30 Club and the Placerville Lions Clubs will host a Carnival for children 10 and under at Town Hall.

The Placerville community gathers each year, filling Main Street with family, friends and neighbors to share the magical moment when we kick off the Holiday Season with the lighting of the Christmas Tree. Shops are open late, restaurants are ready to serve you and beverages can be purchased at the Bell Tower. It is a very sweet and simple tradition we hold dear. Come early, parking can be a challenge, but it is so worth it!
This annual tradition has recently been sponsored by and is a production of the Taylor Family of the Hangman's Tree Ice Cream Saloon on Main Street. Sue and Tim Taylor share this labor of love with a grateful community as we gather to celebrate all the wonderful groups and businesses that make El Dorado County a great place to live and work.
