La Wine Fest

LAWineFest returns to Harry Bridges Memorial Park at the Long Beach Harbor for the premier wine tasting event of the year, June 4 and 5. The 17th annual event will feature award-winning wines from around the globe, plus craft brews and more. Head to LAWineFest to explore all things wine in a beautiful location, with a relaxed atmosphere where exploration and wine education is balanced with artisan shopping boutiques, live music, great food trucks and more. The Fest brings at least 50 established and new and exciting wineries, a dozen brewers, several ciders and much more, and festgoers can enjoy unlimited tastings throughout the afternoon. After a few hours of sipping exquisite wines, brews and other beverages, stroll the waterfront and take  a break to enjoy lobster rolls, brats, sliders, BBQ, ice cream and more from an array of food trucks and booths, available for purchase.
