Napa in Newport Expands to Three-Day Wine Weekend for CureDuchenne
02.18.26
CureDuchenne’s annual Napa in Newport fundraiser returns March 20 to 22 as an expanded, three-day celebration at Pendry Newport Beach, bringing some of Napa Valley’s most sought-after wineries to the coast. The elevated weekend experience pairs world-class wine and dining with a mission to support research, care and advocacy for those living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
The weekend opens Friday with intimate vintner dinners hosted by Peter Michael Winery and Simon Family Estate. Saturday’s black-tie gala includes a grand tasting with more than 25 premier Napa wineries, followed by a multi-course dinner by Chef Colin Bedford of Four Seasons Beverly Wilshire and a live auction featuring travel, private dining and rare wines. New this year, The Ultimate Pour offers a rare, private tasting from cult producers MacDonald and Fairchild, available with select sponsorships and weekend packages. The evening continues with a VIP after-party at Pendry’s Elwood Club.
The celebration wraps up Sunday with Brunch and Bubbles, featuring sparkling wines from JCB. Proceeds benefit CureDuchenne, a global leader in advancing research and care for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. To date, Napa in Newport has raised more than $13 million for the cause. Tickets, tables and weekend packages are available at napainnewport.org.
