Additionally, guests will be treated to distinctive cuisine from popular local eateries, high end artists and exhibitors, and automobile, boat and yacht displays. Don't forget about the traditional GRAPE STOMP competition, always a crowd favorite.
Just 20 minutes south of downtown Houston, the Festival is held in the Bay Area Houston region located midway between Houston and Galveston at the prestigious South Shore Harbour Resort & Conference Center Marina in League City. Deemed the "Boating Capital of Texas," the focal point of Bay Area Houston is Clear Lake, a 2,000-acre inlet of Galveston Bay and the third-largest pleasure boat basin in the United States.
