The Largest Garlic Festival in the World Is Back-and Yes, There's Still Garlic Ice Cream
Briefly

The Gilroy Garlic Festival, established in Gilroy, California, known as the 'Garlic Capital of the World,' is returning after several years of challenges, including a tragic shooting and the pandemic. The festival will take place from July 25 to 27 at South County Grove, featuring 3,000 entrants daily, culinary demonstrations, live entertainment, and a variety of garlic-inspired dishes. Though scaled down, it aims to revive community spirit and continue its legacy as a significant local fundraiser, celebrating the unique cultural and gastronomic identity of Gilroy.
The Gilroy Garlic Festival, once a massive celebration, has returned this year with a reduced capacity and a lineup that still promises culinary delights.
Despite significant changes due to past tragedies, the festival remains a testament to Gilroy's identity and enduring love for garlic.
