Where should we park?

Because this is a wine-centric event, we highly recommend walking or getting a ride. However, if you must drive, we recommend parking at the garage at the LeVeque tower.

What is covered with my Ticket?

Your ticket covers our walk-around tasting of food from some of our city's top chefs, plus a sampling of 10 pours of artisan wines from a selection of over 150 wineries.
