Whether you're looking for a stocking stuffer for family or friends or are looking for a late winter treat for yourself, the Grand Tasting Room is the place to be to discover a world of wine.

Taste the World

If you attend only one of the festival’s events, make it an International Festival Tasting (IFT). Discover and enjoy more than 600 wines from 14 countries in the Grand Tasting Room in the heart of downtown Vancouver. This year's festival shines a spotlight on France, alongside a proud showing of local wines from across BC.

For a limited time, all Tasting Room tickets are only $99 - a savings of up to $30!

Choose from four sessions



• Thursday, March 12, 7-10 p.m.

• Friday, March 13, 7-10 p.m.

• Saturday, March 14, 2:30-5 p.m.

• Saturday, March 14, 7-10 p.m.

Taste It All

Can't decide on just one session? The IFT Pass includes tickets to all four International Festival Tastings. Explore a different country, continent, style, or variety each session, or just explore the room at your leisure!

The IFT Pass is already a steal at $350 – a $496 value – but for a limited time pay only $299 all-in at the super savings advance rate.
