For nearly 90 years, the Napa County Fair Association brought Calistoga together through festivals, parades, and gatherings that defined our town’s spirit. But when the state eliminated funding for fairs and the Calistoga fairgrounds were shuttered, our town was left without a home for its generationally cherished celebrations.
That’s when Celebrate! Napa Valley was born! This evolution came not only to keep our events going but out of a deep commitment to preserving the festivities that bring our community together and highlight the small-town magic that makes Calistoga so special.
At Celebrate! Napa Valley, we do more than host events, we honor traditions, celebrate our agricultural heritage, and create meaningful opportunities for connection. From the Fourth of July Parade & Star-Spangled Social to the Christmas Faire, Harvest Fair, Halloween Parade, and more, we work to preserve the heart and soul of Calistoga’s most treasured celebrations.
As a small but mighty nonprofit, we rely on the generosity of you. It is our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and the partnership with the City of Calistoga that bring these events to life year after year. The magic of these celebrations isn’t just in the lights, music, or parades…..it’s in the hands of the volunteers who show up, the local businesses who invest in our vision, and the families who come together to create core memories.
We believe that community celebrations matter. They strengthen bonds, remind us of our shared history, and give us all a reason to come together in joy. Every ticket purchased, volunteer hour given, and sponsorship received plays a role in keeping these events alive.
We invite you to join us, as a patron, volunteer, supporter, or simply as someone who believes in the value of tradition and community connection. Together, we can ensure that Calistoga remains a place where community spirit isn’t just remembered but celebrated.
