Temecula, CA (PRWEB) March 05, 2014 -- TEMECULA VALLEY Southern California Wine Country, March 4, 2014: “Temecula Valley Southern California Wine Country celebrates Summerfest from May 30 through Labor Day. Linger on less busy weekdays and wrap midweek around the Balloon & Wine Festival, Old Town Farmers Markets, summer concerts, Father’s Day, Street Painting/Plein Air Art Festival, Fourth of July, Hot Summer Nights, Pechanga Pow Wow, Microbrew, and Competitive Barbecue Festivals,“ encourages Kimberly Adams, Temecula Valley Convention & Visitors Bureau president and CEO. “More days equal more fun with Sunday-Thursday hotel and resort lower nightly room rates. Enjoy outdoor adventures, seasonal restaurant menus, artisan foods, and wineries’ new releases. Sunny afternoons are cooled by Pacific breezes, stars fill night skies, and ocean mist drapes early mornings.” Welcoming 2 million visitors yearly, the picturesque Temecula Valley is 60 minutes from San Diego, Orange County, and Palm Springs and 90 minutes from Los Angeles and Hollywood.

1-Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival (May 30-31; June 1).
