Wine Fest Toronto, the city’s favourite two-day all-you-can-taste wine and drinks festival, is back for its fifth year at a brand new location: Heritage Court on the Exhibition Grounds. On Friday, May 9 and Saturday, May 10, attendees will open their liquid passports to sip, explore and celebrate an expanded selection of wines and beverages from across the globe.

Started in 2019, Wine Fest Toronto is the city’s favourite wine and drinks festival celebrating Toronto’s buzzing wine and drinks culture, where guests have a chance to discover wines from around the world through an all-you-can-taste experience. 

The city’s favourite wine and drinks festival, Wine Fest Toronto, announced its boldest expansion to date with a multi-day festival at a new indoor location. With spring and holiday editions set to uncork in May and November, attendees will open their liquid passports to explore and celebrate an expanded selection of wines and more.

With 100+ wines and other beverages from across the globe, Wine Fest Toronto will showcase a diverse array of brands from renowned regions. This year will feature sips from the Wineries of Niagara-on-the-Lake, the Niagara Benchlands Wineries and wines from other major notable wine regions like Argentina, Chile, South Africa, New Zealand, and all over Europe including Spain’s Rioja and Rueda wine regions, as well as France’s iconic Rhône Valley.  You can also taste wines from Emiliana – the world’s largest organic winery and Chile’s Casillero del Diablo, just to name a few.

The expansion marks an exciting evolution for the festival while maintaining its signature all-you-can-taste wine experience that has made Wine Fest Toronto a must-attend event for both connoisseurs and casual wine enthusiasts for four years in a row. The spring edition will welcome the season of renewal with fresh, vibrant selections, perfect for a Mother’s Day celebration!

Adding to the enhanced experience this year, attendees can complement their wine and drinks journey with the ability to take their favourite Niagara-on-the-Lake wines home, enjoy gourmet food pairings, live entertainment, educational seminars and photo-ops, all making for a perfect afternoon of wine and drinks discovery.
