you may buy them when the ticket kiosk is open at the

operates only on April 22, 23, and 24 (the dates of the International
Festival Tastings). Avoid disappointment and buy in advance. Tickets to
special events such as winery dinners and luncheons are not sold at the door
or by the host venue. They must be purchased in advance at 604-873-3311 or at
the kiosk (if available).
Words to the wise
- Buy early! Many events will sell out
early; see 2010 Events and click the drop-down box to
see Available Events Only.
- All ticket prices include wine, food
(if it is a food event), gratuities, GST and services charges. GST
R119251403.
- The festival program is subject to
change without notice.
- The Playhouse Theatre Company does not
accept liability for tickets lost in the mail or misplaced after they are
issued. No refunds, exchanges, or replacement tickets will be issued.
- All events begin promptly. To avoid
disappointment and in consideration of others please arrive on time.
Seating for latecomers at formal sit-down tastings is not guaranteed and
money will not be refunded.
Trade Days Conference:
- Trade Days Conference events are restricted to those
who work in the wine or wine-and-food industry.
- Industry members will be required to provide an
occupational title and company name for each Trade Tasting ticket at the
time of ticket sale. This information is used to produce trade nametags.
- A trade nametag and a ticket are required for
access to the Tasting Room during the afternoon trade sessions.
More Small Print:
- We do our best to make everything perfect, but event
details are subject to change without notice. And without refund.
- Please refrain from stinky stuff like perfume,
cologne, aftershave and hairspray. The noses, palates and wines in the
room will thank you.
- Dress code: We suggest smart business or dress casual
attire, and enthusiastically recommend black. (Red wine never looks good
on white.) To go the distance in the Tasting Room, wear really
comfortable shoes.
- Please taste responsibly. We serve tasting pours.
Your job is to not swallow every ounce that is poured. Do master the
fine art of spitting and/or dumping in the buckets provided at each
station. If you don’t like to spit, feel free to sip and savor then pour
out the rest of your glass. .
- Make a plan. Stay overnight at one of our partner
hotels. Take a taxi. Take transit (BC Liquor Stores offers you a free
ticket). Assign a designated driver. Walk. Just don’t drink and
drive. We want you to get home safely.
- You must be at least 19 years old and
might have to prove it.
