"Bringing our Community Together to Share the Warmth of the Holiday Season"

​Since 1977, the Los Altos Festival of Lights Parade has celebrated the beginning of the Holiday Season in Downtown Los Altos. The theme “A Child’s Holiday Fantasy” comes to life with colorful floats, local high school marching bands and costumed characters -- all lit up with thousands of lights. And of course Santa and his reindeer! ​

The parade is produced by the Los Altos Festival of Lights Association, a non-profit, all volunteer organization of community members. Funding is provided by community grants and donations from our generous spectators.   

Planted in 1996 with Cabernet Sauvignon vines. Marcia Francis vineyard sits on a sloping hillside of Santa Cruz Mountains, along the Peninsula. Warm days are cooled by the coastal fog rolling over the hills. In the evening a perfect climate allows the grapes to thrive in our organic farming practices.

Each year the grapes are harvested by hand and the wine is placed in French oak barrels for 18-20 months. After bottling we let it rest for at least a year or two. The outcome has been a wine that you can taste the care given to the vineyard and the craftsmanship in the production from grape to bottling. We hope you enjoy it!
