Raise a glass: the Utah Wine Festival returns August 29–31, 2025, bringing three days of wine, food, and community to Southern Utah. Now in its seventh year, the festival has become the state’s premier celebration of Utah wines and local cuisine.
The Utah Wine Festival is unique in its focus—showcasing exclusively Utah wineries alongside the culinary talents of top chefs from around the state. Attendees can look forward to an intimate weekend filled with tastings, pairings, and educational experiences that highlight the artistry behind the region’s growing wine culture.
Festival organizers emphasize quality over quantity, keeping event sizes small to ensure a personal and welcoming atmosphere. Popular events from past years will return, including vineyard picnics, guided tastings, and wine-paired dinners. Guests can also expect new experiences designed to expand appreciation for both wine and food.
With limited tickets available for each event, early purchase is highly recommended. Tickets officially go on sale June 9, and many of the most popular experiences are expected to sell out quickly.
More than just a festival, the weekend offers the chance to connect directly with Utah winemakers, chefs, and educators while enjoying the scenic backdrop of Cedar City and its red rock surroundings. Whether you are a seasoned wine enthusiast or simply curious to learn more, the Utah Wine Festival provides a rare opportunity to explore the state’s wine and food scene in depth.
