Walnut Creek Art & Wine Festival 2022 This Weekend

WALNUT CREEK, CA — Considered by many residents to be the best festival in Contra Costa County, the Walnut Creek Art & Wine Festival returns this Saturday and Sunday. The festival starts at 11 a.m. both days. It will close at 7 p.m. on Saturday and 6 p.m. on Sunday.

It will be held at Heather Farm Park.

Admission is free, and so is the parking at the Shadelands Office Park with continuous free shuttles. Free on-site supervised valet bike parking."

On-site parking at Heather Farm Park is $10 if the free parking and free shuttle are inconvenient.
