Upcoming Wine Events

Most of the events created by Wine Events & Promotions are private events for companies or individuals and are not posted on this site. To see a listing of upcoming wine events for the general public go to Seattle Uncorked, below.



Join Seattle Uncorked Wine Club

For a wide variety of events, join Seattle Uncorked! This new social club is for wine enthusiasts to meet new friends & network with others who love wine! Unlike most “wine clubs” whose real purpose is to sell wine, Seattle Uncorked is simply a resource to learn about fun tasting events, classes, blogs, and local wine stores and wine bars.

This new wine club offers a wide variety of fun, spontaneous events, large and small. Members will receive a membership card, frequent emails with notices of events, and occasional discounts from area stores, wine bars, wineries, and events. Go to www.SeattleUncorked.com to sign up for this free wine club!!

There will be 8 tables down the middle of the room which will hold 300 of these bags. To add to the excitement, we’ll have fashionista Joan Kelly auctioning off special handbags signed & donated by celebrities, including Carol Burnett, Olivia Newton John, Shawn Johnson, Tina Fey, Sharon Osbourne, Regina King, Lili Taylor, Sweet P, Scarlett Johansson and Indigo Girls' Amy Ray! And the most unique handbag to be auctioned will be one specially decorated by famed glass artist, Dale Chihuly.

We hope you would like to be featured in this popular event and help us raise money for Gilda's Club of Seattle, a support center for those living with cancer and their families, founded in honor of Gilda Radner after her death from ovarian cancer.
