"Thanks to the hard work of the volunteers at Gilroy Garlic Festival Association and our partners at the Hecker Pass Outdoor Events Center, we will be able to welcome even more guests to our annual celebration of all things garlic," stated GGFA President Alex Misa. "After our successful sellout return in 2025, we are thrilled to make the 2026 Festival even bigger and better than before. But these tickets will go fast, so please don't wait to get yours while you can!"
The 2026 Gilroy Garlic Festival will feature fan-favorite Gourmet Alley food and Pyro Chef flame-ups as well as live music, culinary demonstrations, book readings, arts and crafts vendors, and fun activities for all ages. Guests will also enjoy free garlic, free ice cream, and free tastings of Toom garlic dip.
Founded in 1979, the Gilroy Garlic Festival Association has a legacy of celebrating Gilroy's heritage while giving back to the community. Since its inception, the organization has raised and distributed millions of dollars to local non-profits, schools, and charitable organizations, all through the dedication of volunteers and community members.
