The Wine Festival at The Plains and The Commonwealth Cup both happen rain or shine.

Have you seen our really big tents???

Essentially, you can do this entire event all indoors

under our massive wine, food and culinary stage tents that provide plenty of shade or cover.

Your ticket is good for one day only - you can choose either day - that's our way

of offering you weather insurance. Refunds cannot be provided for this event.

 

WHAT TO WEAR:

Uppity casual is the idea.

Whether you choose high heels and a big fancy hat or comfy khakis,

peddlepushers or shorts, a polo shirt, collar shirt, sweater or blazer

you'll fit right in with the crowd.

 

BRING:

Be sure to bring an official Photo ID (drivers license, passport, state issued ID)

You may reserve a table to use all day from our ticketing page -

 click the tickets below to reserve a table - the cost is $15 per seat.

We also have first-come seating available free - but we think you will have to be quick to get a table.

You might want to throw a picnic blanket or concert chair in the trunk just in case.

If the kids are coming bring kites, frisbees or balls - the polo field is BIG and not in use for a couple of hours.

 

DON'T BRING:

You may bring your own picnic snack items.

Do not bring big Coolers, tents, pets or outside alcoholic beverages.

All the best caterers will be there with gourmet picnic fare for reasonable prices...

Salamander Market, Legends Catering, The Grapevine Restaurant,

Capitol Catering, Fired Up Pizza

Instead of buying, fixing and hauling your picnic

out to the meadow, it's all available here!
