General FAQ
Know Before You Go
Your ticket grants you access to enjoy all food samples/ Wine, spirits and beer tastings. Wine glass/ shopping bag, and the majority of culinary demos. Cheers and Enjoy!
How can I avoid waiting in long lines?
This is grown up time and a busy event. ALL attendees mut be at least 21 years of age.
Due to the high volumes of attendees entering at once, there is no way to completely beat the line. However, we do have a few suggestions. If you purchased from a third-party ticket seller, please make sure your ticket is converted to EventBrite. This is extremely important as EventBrite offers the fastest technology for ticket scanning. If your ticket has not been converted, you will be directed to a different line so that converted ticket holders are not slowed down. The casino WiFi can be very spotty, so please have your EventBrite Ticket loaded in your Apple Wallet or printed and have valid ID in hand.
Pro Tip: Once you have entered the festival, start from the back. Most of our attendees are so mesmerized by the front that they begin there. OG Taste fans know that starting from the back and working your way up to the front is the move.
How much does it cost to park?

How should I get to the festival if I am not staying at the VF Casino?
e highly recommend getting a ride or using a ride sharing platform like Uber or Lyft
Please drink responsibly.
