WACONIA WINE FESTIVAL

  • Parley Lake Winery 8280 Parley Lake Road Waconia, MN, 55387 (map)

THE MOST ANTICIPATED WINE FESTIVAL IN MINNESOTA!

The Waconia Wine Festival is the perfect expression of Minnesota wines, featuring three distinctive vineyards within a 5-mile radius of each other. The perfect opportunity to visit some of the best wineries in all of Minnesota, each guest will have the opportunity to taste, explore, and enjoy a variety of wines.

ONE TICKET $50 - 3 wineries - 9 tastings - souvenir glass

To accommodate the high demand, the Festival spans two days, Saturday, July 30th & and Sunday, July 31st. Guests can choose which day, what time, and what winery they would like to begin their tour.

Guests will check in at their starting winery and receive their Waconia Wine Festival souvenir-tasting glass. From there, each individual will have the opportunity to sample 3 hand-selected wines from that vineyard.

TRANSPORTATION INCLUDED

Once guests complete their tasting, they can hop on the tour bus and make their way to the next location. Buses depart from each winery, every half-hour. If guests choose to transport themselves, they may do so as well, but all guests must follow the designated route.

All wineries will be accepting walk-in ticket sales. WALK-IN ADMISSION: $20 at EACH winery or single winery of your choice and includes tasting, souvenir glass, and transportation OR $10 entrance fee at EACH winery to enjoy music and purchase wine and food. Does NOT include tasting or souvenir glass.

Must be 21 to attend this event. Have ID ready at check-in. Tickets are non-refundable.

PLEASE NOTE: There is no fee for sober drivers to attend Waconia Wine Country Festival.

Sober Drivers will be issued a wristband at check-in that will indicate them as such and THEY WILL NOT be able to purchase any alcoholic beverages at the festival and NOT be given a souvenir glass. They may use transportation to other wineries during the event.

Going into its 7th year, this event sells out fast!
