The grape harvesting festival is held in the first weeks of September in Bozcaada, a charming island known for its ice-cold sea, narrow cobblestone streets, and fresh island air that makes you keep coming back each year. The first day of the festival starts with the symbolic grape harvesting that the wine producers on the island organize in their vineyards. Vineyard growers and festival visitors go to the vineyards with tractors, where grapes are gathered. The grapes

are brought to Bozcaada square with horses, donkeys, and tractors in keeping up with old traditions.

Locals of Bozcaada sell homemade wines, jams and jewellery and many more products in festival stalls. During the festival, concerts and competitions are held on the island as well. The Miss Grape beauty pageant is held, and the best Çavuş Grape is nominated and chosen.
