Best Time to Visit

Best Time to Visit

For those who enjoy warm weather, summer (July to September) is a fantastic time to experience Napa Valley. Temperatures hover around 28°C, and sunny skies are the norm, with virtually no rain. This is peak festival season, and one of the major highlights is the Festival Napa Valley in July. This renowned celebration of music, food, wine, and culture brings together over 200 musicians, wineries, theaters, and chefs for a vibrant mix of concerts, culinary events, summer camps, and dance performances. If you prefer cooler weather and a quieter atmosphere, late fall to winter (November) can be equally enchanting. This is when Napa’s landscape transforms, with vineyards donning golden hues and crisp air setting the tone. November is also the month of Napa’s Christmas Parade, a festive spectacle featuring dazzling floats and performances along Napa’s streets, with a different theme and route each year.
