From the Founders


We created StreamFest to reimagine what a festival could be—modern, inclusive, and truly reflective of how we consume content today. It’s not a film festival, it’s StreamFest. It’s a curated, in-person experience that blends PODCASTS, SERIES, FILMS, and SOCIAL CONTENT into one binge-worthy celebration. Think of it as a variety act for the streaming generation—spotlighting the artists we actually watch, follow, and laugh with. Let's rediscover the POWER OF SHARED EXPERIENCES & HUMAN CONNECTION. What better place than Napa Valley to SIP, SAVOR, & STREAM?

We invite you to attend and be a part of the festival of the future.

April 23-26, 2026, in Downtown Napa

With gratitude,

Fearon DeWeese & Juliana Folk

Co-Founders, Napa Valley StreamFest

“It was like summer camp for adults—with better wine, epic parties, and stories that will last a lifetime.”

Fearon DeWeese

“It felt like hanging out with friends who just happen to be your favorite artists and storytellers.”
