Gilroy Gardens finalizes agreement to host Gilroy Garlic Festival

An agreement has been finalized between the Gilroy Garlic Festival Association and Gilroy Gardens to bring the beloved festival back to Gilroy as a separate ticketed event.

The final approval was given for the Festival to use the South County Grove event space, as announced by the Gilroy Gardens Board of Directors this morning.

“The Gilroy Garlic Festival Association and Gilroy Gardens share similar goals of working collaboratively with local businesses, nonprofits, and other organizations to strengthen and showcase the Gilroy community," Gilroy Gardens Chairman Dan Harney said.

The Gilroy Garden Festival will return from July 25 to 27 at the South County Grove as a separate event from admission to the theme park.

Guests must buy a separate ticket for admission to Gilroy Gardens.

This will be the first time the festival has been hosted in 6 years after the tragic shooting in 2019, when 3 people were killed after a 19-year-old gunman began firing at people.
