I have never been to the Grape Festival in Altus, but I have always thought it sounded like fun.
The Grape Festival is Altus’ annual celebration of the grape harvest with blessing of the harvest ceremony and cutting of the vines. The fun includes grape-stomping competitions, waiter & waitress tray races, grape pie-eating contest, wine tasting booths, juried craft show, food booths, inflatable play area for children, street dances, an amateur wine tasting contest, free vineyard tours, street dance and a Bacchas look-alike contest.
