Fiesta de la Vendimia de Casablanca in Casablanca
Running since 2003 and now in its twelfth edition, Casablanca's harvest festival takes over the Estadio Municipal each April with wine tastings, parade floats, a Reina de la Vendimia crowning, grape-stomping and live music. The valley's cool-climate wine identity, shaped by winemaker Pablo Morande's work here starting in the 1980s, underpins a festival positioned within easy reach of both Santiago and Valparaiso.
Casablanca's Fiesta de la Vendimia began in 2003, when winery owners and workers in this cool-climate valley between Santiago and Valparaiso decided to mark the end of a successful harvest with a shared public celebration rather than separate, private toasts.
