Wine Fest Toronto's bi-annual schedule means two distinctly different festival experiences, each perfectly timed to showcase seasonal wines & drinks at their peak.
Our spring wine festival Toronto edition celebrates renewal with bright, refreshing selections perfect for patio season. Expect crisp whites, vibrant rosés, and light-bodied reds that sing in warmer weather. Past spring editions debuted exclusive summer releases.
The holiday wine event Toronto transforms into a cozy indoor celebration perfect for seasonal gatherings. Rich reds, warming ports, and festive sparklers dominate the pour list. Heritage Court becomes a winter wonderland with holiday décor, creating intimate tasting spaces ideal for corporate parties and friend groups. Comfort foods replace summer fare, with hearty dishes that pair beautifully with bold winter wines.
Both editions maintain our signature liquid passport format, free classes, and entertainment. The difference lies in atmosphere and selection. Choose spring for energetic vibes and refreshing pours, or select our holiday edition for elegance and wines that warm from within.
Wine Fest Toronto curates an exceptional selection spanning established wine regions and emerging producers. Our commitment to variety means discovering your next favourite bottle becomes inevitable. Taste France is our featured region, showcasing 8-12 distinguished French wine regions – our largest collection of French wines ever.
French wines anchor our international wine tasting experience with Bordeaux blends, Burgundian Pinots, and Provence rosés. Italian selections range from crisp Pinot Grigios to bold Barolos. Spanish Tempranillos and Albariños showcase Iberian terroir, while New World standouts from Australia, and South Africa prove tradition has worthy competition.
Local pride shines through our extensive Ontario VQA wines collection. We highlight established Niagara estates alongside Prince Edward County upstarts. Signature icewines share table space with innovative orange wines and pét-nats that challenge perceptions of Canadian winemaking.
Wine Fest Toronto regularly features new wine releases Toronto collectors seek. Previous festivals premiered LCBO exclusives, small-batch imports, and winery-only reserves sometimes unavailable at retail.
Beyond wine, discover premium spirits and ready-to-drink cocktails, showcasing gins and vodkas, while international brands pour aged whiskeys and craft liqueurs.
Wine Fest Toronto elevates beyond standard tastings through dynamic programming that entertains while you learn. Our festival atmosphere balances sophisticated wine appreciation with genuine fun.
Music sets the perfect tempo with carefully curated playlists. Expect upbeat rhythms that encourage mingling without overwhelming conversation. The playlist evolves throughout each session, starting mellow and building energy as glasses fill and friendships form.
Free wine seminars Toronto experts lead happen continuously throughout each session. These wine tasting classes cover essential topics: proper tasting techniques, food pairing principles, regional wine characteristics, and seasonal selection tips. No registration required, simply join any class that interests you. Our sommeliers present complex topics accessibly, ensuring beginners feel welcomed while offering insights that surprise veterans.
Interactive festival entertainment includes Instagram-worthy photobooths. These activities create natural conversation starters, turning solo attendees into new friends united by wine appreciation.
