All wineries participate each day of the event unless noted.
The wine trail is self-guided. Please feel free to visit as many wineries as you wish. There is no defined “start” and “end” point to the wine trail
* Online ticket sales end the day before the event starts at 9pm, EST. Prices do not include NYS sales tax. Please retain your ticket and wine glass for each day you will be attending an event.
Important Information about event tickets:
To avoid overcrowding, and to make our events more enjoyable for everyone, you may select your preference for a starting winery when you reserve your tickets online. The number of online tickets remaining for each starting winery will be shown at the bottom of the starting winery’s ticket page in the online store. Please start at your assigned winery and then proceed at your own pace and in the direction most convenient for you and your party. This helps to keep traffic flowing smoothly around the wine trail, and helps to minimize check-in delays. This system may also introduce you to a winery you may have never stopped at before!
It is recommended that large groups place all ticket reservations under the same order. If there are not enough tickets remaining at a starting point to accommodate your group please email the wine trail directly so alternative arrangements may be made for you: sales@niagarawinetrail.org
Although the available reserved tickets at a location my run out, tickets may be sold at the door at each winery during the event for the at the door price listed with that event’s info below.
Please remember it is illegal for wineries to serve wine to any visibly intoxicated person and for any person to bring any outside alcoholic beverages onto our properties. Visitors who are intoxicated, disorderly or have brought outside alcoholic beverages into a winery will not be served, should not expect a refund and may be asked to leave. We appreciate your respect for our wineries and other guests. Have fun and please drink responsibly!
