Art & Wine Festival

Millbrae Celebrates 43rd Annual Labor Day Weekend Festival

The “Last Blast of Summer”

Massive Crowds Expected for Stellar Lineup of Music, Art, Food and Mardi Gras-Style Fun

The big one is coming! For some sun-splashed, Mardi Gras-style fun and an unbeatable entertainment value this Labor Day weekend, head to lively downtown Millbrae for the city’s annual big bash — the Art & Wine Festival, August 31-September 1. Every year, the last unofficial weekend of summer brings enormous crowds to town for the Bay Area’s biggest Labor Day weekend bash, transforming the delightful downtown streets into a resplendent sea of people and colorful tents. Stroll, browse, relax and enjoy a friendly and vibrant street fair with two days of stellar live music, gorgeous handcrafted work by 250 talented artists, fabulous food and drink, a microbrew tasting tent, the “Classically Cool Car Show”, an organic and green products showcase, artisan specialty foods, home and garden exhibits, health and wellness displays, and tons of fun for kids. The festival takes place on Broadway (1 block west of El Camino Real) between Victoria and Meadow Glen. Hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. Admission is free.

Fine Art, One-of-a-Kind Crafts

Buyers and browsers will find thousands of handcrafted items in well-stocked booths covering several city blocks. Meet 250 exceptional artists and craftmakers—offering great variety and price points to satisfy every budget—on hand with their latest creations. Featuring original work in sculpture, paintings, photography, glass, ceramics, textiles, jewelry, leather, wood, metal and mixed media, the festival is considered among the top art shows in the Bay Area. Vases, flatware, clocks, dishes, wall and table decorations, paperweights, stained and beveled glass, etchings, sculptures, photography, oil and watercolor paintings, beadwork, gold and silver jewelry, vests, handbags, hats, wallets, footwear, windchimes, and waterfalls are among the one-of-a-kind items available.
