Winetober Fest began in October 2009 and has grown into one of the region’s most unique and anticipated wine festivals. Now in its 16th year, the semi-annual event draws 4,000–5,000 guests to Skippack, PA, for a day of wine, food, live music, and community.

Setup Hours: 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM

  • Vendors must arrive before 11:00 AM to access the venue with vehicles.

  • Trucks or 10×20 spaces: Please arrive between 8:00–9:00 AM to secure your space. Trucks may need to fit between tents, so early arrival is strongly encouraged.

  • After 11:00 AM: You will not be able to drive up to your space. You’ll need to park in vendor parking and hand-carry items.

➡️ All vendors must be fully set up by 12:00 PM for VIP check-in. Guests often arrive early.
