VTV, LV Wine, and Livermore Valley Wineries ready for the festival! |
VTV and eight of our wonderful Livermore Valley Wineries trekked down to sunny Santa Barbara for the California Wine Festival. We represented not just each individual winery, but we banded together to represent and promote the entire region. Special shoutout to those wineries who headed down there in-person: McGrail, Las Positas, 3 Steves, Cuda Ridge, and Wente, plus Livermore Valley Wine Community's Jenny O'Leary. We can't wait for next year.

Quality Time at the Alameda County Fair |
VTV and our hotel partners celebrated the end of our fiscal year with an office get-together followed by a Gin Blossoms concert at the Fair. Our Fair sponsorship was a big hit and was quite the presence at the biggest event of the year (440k+ people came through the gates over three weeks). |
Big Time Sports Events on Deck |
Visit Tri-Valley will be welcoming thousands of out-of-town guests from all around the world on the weekend of July 28. The Intermediate Little League World Series in Livermore brings 12 teams together (six from around the US and six international teams) for a week-long tournament with the final game to be broadcast on ESPN. Last year’s champion was home-grown from our partners in Danville.
The Continental Youth Championships (otherwise known as the Gaelic Games) will welcome an international crowd of thousands from Ireland as well as guests from around the entire US, July 27-30. The CYC will be held here in the Tri-Valley for the very first time (an honor usually bestowed upon the big cities). Many thanks to the City of Dublin for partnering with us to bring this prestigious event here.
