Join the California Wine Festival, Southern California’s premier wine event, for two days of oceanfront tastings on November 8 and 9 at the Paséa Hotel & Spa. Attendees will sample wines from across California, paired with delicious offerings from top Orange County restaurants, all set against the backdrop of stunning coastal views.
The event kicks off Friday evening with a Sunset Rare & Reserve Tasting, featuring hard-to-find award-winning wines and exquisite appetizers from local favorites like Duke’s Huntington Beach and Bluegold. A silent auction will also take place, with proceeds benefiting the Golden Rule Charity, supporting hospitality workers in need.
On Saturday, the Beachside Wine Festival offers an afternoon of culinary education and exploration with winemakers and representatives from California's top wineries. Guests can enjoy hundreds of premium wines and craft brews, paired with gourmet appetizers.
VIP ticket holders will have exclusive access to gourmet dining and premium wines in the hotel’s Blue Room, along with breathtaking ocean views. Sponsors this year include Piper-Sonoma, BMW, and more, with unique activations throughout the event.
Live entertainment will enhance the experience, featuring acoustic performances on Friday and eclectic surf sounds on Saturday.
This is a 21+ event. Tickets are available for pre-sale at CaliforniaWineFestival.com.
