Texas Hill Country Grape Stomp Events for 2025
The grape harvest season is a fantastic time to cross something off your bucket list – if stomping on grapes to get purple feet is your bucket item! Grape stomping is fun if you’ve never done it before (so I hear, I haven’t done it yet). Texas wine lovers will appreciate stomping the very grapes that they drink!
Make it a true getaway and check out Fredericksburg, TX, wine tours and lodging, a Texas wine Bed and breakfast place, or any of the hotels in Fredericksburg. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed at any place you decide to stay; after all, it’s the Texas Hill Country – where everything is a scenic journey!

Im going to be in Austin, TX from 21-29 Oct 2024 for a Girls Trip. I was wondering if there are any grape stomping in Austin or near by during that timeframe. I have always wanted to that (it’s on my bucket list).
If I’m not mistaking, Grape Stomped are either in the summer or September, not in October. But the October Wine Month is going on all month long. Where you buy a pass and you get to visit 4 wineries a day for wine tasting. Look up Texas Hill Country Wineries.
