The California Garlic Festival is a food festival in California, United States, centered around Garlic, that was started in 2022 in response to the cancellation of the Gilroy Garlic Festival. The new festival is sometimes considered a successor of the other,[1] although they are organized by two unrelated promoters.[2][3]

The California Garlic Festival is organized by the Noceti Group, which also organizes the annual Asparagus Festival in Stockton.[1][4]

The event was held at San Joaquin County Fairgrounds in August 2022 and August 2023, and moved to Los Banos in August 2024.[1][4]
