Montclair Beer, Wine & Music Festival Presented By Ken Betts

Cost: Free

The Montclair Village Association (MVA), and generous presenting sponsor Ken Betts Company, are excited to announce the 10th Annual Montclair Beer, Wine & Music Festival. Join us on Saturday, June 15th, 2024 from 12-6pm in Montclair Village, nestled in the beautiful hills of Oakland, CA. Several blocks will be closed for this community celebration and fundraiser; there were over 3000 attendees last year.

Proceeds benefit the Montclair Village Association, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving the business district and surrounding community for 75 years. Funds raised will help improve safety and beautification, and ensure free family-friendly gatherings continue throughout the year.

Unlimited Tasting Packages are $50 in advance — or $60 at the event — and include unlimited samples of over 50 craft beers, artisanal wines, and other alcohol and nonalcoholic drinks in a commemorative glass sponsored by Montclair Sports Tennis & Pickleball and Red Oak Realty.

Free local bands on Mister Beever’s Paws & Claws Main Stage powered by Meet Your Core Pilates — sound engineering by Dana Jae Audio Collective — include Jazz Education Ensemble (12-1pm); Skip the Needle (1:30-3:30pm); and Wolf Jett (4-6pm).

Free family-friendly activities and attractions in the Family Fun Zone, sponsored by F&M Bank, include:

• Designing a terra cotta planter and planting a succulent to take home, courtesy of Marissa Verson Harrison and Ilan Penson with Red Oak Realty
• Interactive dance and movement for all ages led by Embodied Groove
• Affirmation Wheel and all-ages crafting hosted by Oakland Center for Spiritual Living
• Jessie Nakamura’s Hip Hop Group flash mob dancing to Texas Hold Em’ by Beyonce

Attendees can dine on delicious food by Daughter Thai Kitchen or any of our local participating restaurants, shop for treasures sold by street vendors and small businesses, stroll the nearby Montclair Railroad Trail, or pause for a peaceful break in Montclair Park.

Parking is available in the Montclair Parking Garage (6235 La Salle Avenue).
