The Saratoga Wine & Food Festival
A unique destination event based around culinary excellence and ethos, sustainable culinary practices, and cultural experiences. The reimagined festival celebrates the bounty and talent of the region from the Hudson Valley to the Adirondacks with fine wines, a new farm-to-table inspired dinner, live music, a variety of visual arts, food tastings, culinary talent, and VIP experiences.
As a 501c3 non-profit organization, the festival is the largest fundraiser for Saratoga Performing Arts Center’s educational programming.
