Mark your calendars to kick off the 14th annual 30A Wine Festival with a beautiful evening within the arched enclosure of the Red Loggia at Caliza. An evening of sophisticated flavors is underway from the talented chefs of the Alys Beach Culinary team paired with exceptional fine wines.

Nestled amongst the trees of Arboleda Park, savor an enchanting evening featuring the finest oysters sourced from the bountiful Southeastern Gulf waters accompanied by renowned chefs from across the Southeast as they pair up to create unique culinary delights. Raw oysters and curated, chef-prepared dishes are complemented by the effervescent bubbles of champagne and melodious notes of live music during this exquisite night of revelry and joy.

Indulge in the rich flavors and heritage of agave spirits as we feature four unique tequila distilleries from Mexico at the 30A Wine Festival’s second Tequila & Tapas tasting event. Plan to learn from the distillers themselves about how each spirit is distilled and barreled, and experience tasting the distilleries’ finest tequilas neat as well as in a cocktail. Small plates with a Spanish flare will be served from local culinary talents and live music will accompany this vibrant evening.

Enjoy a night of bourbon, beer, and barbecue with bourbon tastings from distilleries across the country, craft brews from local and national breweries, and savory barbecue creations showcasing the top culinary talents in the Southeast. Tune up your banjo – the sounds of modern bluegrass band, Fireside Collective, is sure to keep your toes tappin’ through the night!

The crown jewel of the 30A Wine Festival is the Grand Tasting, where more than 80 wines from across the globe cascade down South Charles Street to an exotic Gulf Green culmination. Steeped in the rich heritage of India, an elegant bazaar of vintners and wineries meets the aromatic allure of the spices and flavors of South Asia. Ambient yet radiant, this Grand Tasting event takes a spirited journey of sensory celebration!

We’ll keep the mimosas, Bloody Mary’s, and coffee cocktails flowing while you enjoy a lively, delicious brunch in one of Alys Beach’s most beautiful and iconic settings, Gulf Green. Feel the joy as the sounds of the gospel choir fill the space for this celebratory Sunday event.

Ahoy! The grand finale of the 30A Wine Festival, Rosé & Croquet, sets course for a land-faring tournament* and lawn party in Central Park. Add a splash of maritime glamour to your croquet whites and board the green for an afternoon of nautical revelry as the games set sail or simply coast through the rosé tastings from the spectator deck. Enjoy brunch bites, raise a glass, cheer on your crew, and toast to another unforgettable 30A Wine Festival weekend in Alys Beach.
