(New 2022) I originally wrote this review in 2015 and nothing has changed. I’d hoped with time off from covid and more the organization & event would have gotten better. But no. One month out of the 2022 festival is when they finally released the music talent names- and again it’s lame basic talent. I am sure the food and wine will be too. This could be so amazing if they’d put forth effort. Go big or go home!!!

….Hopefully 2015 will be better than last year. The festival seems to be going downhill, almost as if they are trying to kill it. Same entertainment as previous years- while good, let's get some new blood PLEASE! And the wines? They contract in the big name distributors, so we see way too many California and supermarket mass produced wines. Meanwhile, we are living in the Northwest- home to some of the most amazing wines in the world!! Maryhill is local, but they are no where near as good as whats from Oregon or even farther out in the Washington hills. And then there is the food. We are a captive audience inside the fence. We need to eat. Last year it was hot dogs and fried food, and basically that was all!! Nothing that goes with wine (cheese? Pizza?) and nothing edible. This could again be a wonderful, worldwide event if the right people got their acts together. Esther Short park is the perfect place for this. Bring back the glory days. Get decent wine, food & music!!
