ATASCADERO — Early Bird tickets to the Atascadero Wine Fest are now on sale. Tickets are $65 now through April 30. The Wine Festival will take place on Saturday, June 22, from 5 to 8 p.m. at Atascadero Lake Park.

Thousands of wine lovers will pour into Atascadero’s sun-splashed lakeside location for an afternoon of sun, wine, food, and music. Attendees will taste over 100 wines, beers, and spirits together with local purveyors of art and hand-crafted items. The Joy Bonner Band and soloist Dulcie Taylor will keep the beat going for an afternoon of fun.

“As a wine enthusiast, I have been to my fair share of wine festivals, and this year’s Atascadero Wine Fest promises to be different and exceed attendees’ expectations. The picturesque and casual lakeside setting, paired alongside conversations with winemakers and owners, will be a must-attend event. Attendees will leave smiling with a newfound appreciation of the wines from our region,” said Evan Taylor, Wine Festival Committee Member.

Tickets can be purchased online at atascaderowinefest.com or by calling the Atascadero Chamber of Commerce at (805) 466-2044.

On May 1, pricing will increase to $75, and tickets at the door will be $90. Non-drinker tickets are $30.
