The centrepiece of the Vancouver Playhouse International Wine Festival and one of the most spectacular events in the city. A must for any serious wine collector: The evening provides an unparalleled opportunity to enhance your wine cellar through auctions of rare, valuable and unusual wines, donated by some of the world’s top winemakers and private collectors. These unique wines may never again be available. Auction lots will be announced a week prior to the event on PlayhouseWinefest.com.

Experience the ultimate in wine and food pairing: A sparkling wine reception and nine wines paired with five courses. The Fairmont Hotel Vancouver’s executive chef will create a series of gastronomic delights that will leave your senses reeling. And if that’s not enough, auctions will include unique culinary experiences, excursions and extravaganzas, featuring chefs and sommeliers from the West Coast’s top restaurants.
