If garlic is your thing, mark June 13 on the calendar now. Denville’s third annual Garlic Fan Fest is back on Saturday, June 13, 2026, from 2 to 8 PM at Todd Johnson Field, 34 Savage Road, Denville, NJ 07834.

This year brings a first: the Fan Favorite Garlic Dish Competition, putting local garlic-forward creations head-to-head for the community’s vote.

What to Expect

The event draws more than 3,500 attendees and packs Todd Johnson Field with food vendors serving garlic-inspired dishes, live tastings, cooking demos, photo ops, giveaways, and live entertainment throughout the afternoon. The fest is organized by Two Girls Media and is fully outdoors on a grassy field.

Tickets and the Toothpaste Deal

General admission is $7 at the gate. Here’s the deal: bring a full-sized tube of toothpaste or a package of toothbrushes as a donation, and $2 comes off your gate price. Pre-purchase tickets with a service fee are also available through the same Eventbrite link above.

Get There

Todd Johnson Field is at 34 Savage Road, Denville, NJ 07834. The event is entirely outdoors. Check the organizer’s social media closer to the date for any weather-related updates.

Round out the trip: our guide to Denville covers the rest of downtown, and the best restaurants in Denville and the best pizza in Denville are both a short walk from the festival.
