Your ticket price for Wine Samplers includes unlimited sampling of wines, plus a special chocolate surprise. We will provide you with a wine glass to use for your samples. You'll be able to buy wine at a great festival price! Many vendors also offer nibbles of their products too, so you can sample and purchase their food items. We will also offer Designated Drivers bottled water and a wine glass on their way out!

Our shows have typically sold out in advance, so we suggest you buy your tickets early. Most shows offer two sessions, to help reduce crowding and ensure a fun experience for everyone. Please check the specific show location to find out the status of ticket sales.
