Gilroy Garlic Festival 2011

Like magic, each last full three-day weekend in July, Christmas Hill Park is transformed into a home that hosts over 100,000 people. Over 4,000 volunteers treat their guests to food, drink, shopping, entertainment and fun. The 33rd Annual Gilroy Garlic Festival was more than just a huge success in numbers and dollars raised. It was another triumph for the community — a time when neighbors joined neighbors to work for their favorite nonprofit organization. It was a time for friends who hadn’t seen each other all year to catch up. And it was a time to introduce people from all over the world to the beautiful community that we call home.
