You’re Sure To Love Cleveland’s Incredible Annual Garlic Festival
Each summer, Clevelanders gather for amazing and intricate celebrations and festivals. However, one of the weirder celebrations takes place in Shaker Square, and you won’t want to miss it.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here: onlyinyourstate.com/nominate
Plan to spend the weekend in Shaker Square. Stop by Saturday between noon and 9 p.m., or swing in Sunday between noon and 6 p.m. Parking is limited, so consider taking public transportation!
Inspired by California's Gilroy Garlic Festival, the Cleveland Garlic Festival is a celebration of all things garlic.
Crowds gather to enjoy garlic-themed goodies, live music, wine tastings, and more.
Here, chefs from Moxie, The Restaurant prep for a garlic-themed grill off.
Grab tickets for the whole family! Admission for children ages 3-12 is $5, adults are $9, and seniors are $5.

Proceeds from the event will fund the mission of the North Union Farmers Market. They serve Greater Cleveland by providing 10 "certified producer-only farmers markets," connecting consumers and producers in a way that is both fun and delicious.
Wave to Miss Garlic Saturday at the 2:30 parade, watch your kids explore the Mighty Locavores Area, and explore delightful goods from local vendors.
There are still volunteer opportunities for the event, so sign up and get involved today!
