The main event of Healdsburg Wine and Food Experience is the Grand Tasting on Saturday, May 16 when, in the center of this small town paradise, the main parking lot transforms into a haven of food and wine exploration. Truly one of the top experiences in the culinary, wine and spirits world, and it’s happening mid-May.

The Sushi by Scratch Experience sold out quickly, but tickets for everything from the hip concert at Rodney Strong Vineyards Friday night to the legendary Big Bottle Night after the Grand Tasting on Saturday to the recovery day Pool Party at Coppola on Sunday and Copain‘s Pizza Party still have tickets available. VIP Platinum Passes that get you into everything earlier than the general public and include extras throughout the weekend.
