About this event
Alys Beach's striking white Mediterranean architecture provides the backdrop for one of the Gulf Coast's most sophisticated wine events — five days of curated tastings, intimate dinners, and festive celebrations across the village's parks and plazas. The 30A Wine Festival brings together 80+ wines from around the globe in a setting that feels more Santorini than Florida.
The week unfolds across a rotating lineup of experiences: a Wine Dinner (Wednesday), an Oysters & Champagne and Tapas & Tequila evening (Thursday), Bourbon Beer & Butts night (Friday), the centerpiece Grand Tasting featuring all 80+ wines (Saturday 3:30-6:30 PM), and a relaxed Gospel Brunch with Rosé and Croquet to close on Sunday. Every event is ticketed separately, letting you build the perfect long weekend itinerary.
Whether you're a devoted wine enthusiast or simply looking for a beautiful and culturally rich reason to visit 30A in the heart of winter, this festival delivers. Alys Beach's traffic-free streets, elegant outdoor spaces, and Gulf views make every sip taste a little better.
Best for: Wine enthusiasts, couples, upscale travelers, food and culture lovers
What to expect: Five days of wine dinners, an 80+ wine grand tasting, champagne and oysters, bourbon and BBQ, and a Sunday rosé brunch with croquet on the lawn.
