BETHLEHEM, Pa. — It seems as if one of ArtsQuest's annual festivals has aged like, well, like fine wine.

Tickets, at $51.50 until Feb. 7 and $62.50 after that, are available on the ArtsQuest website or at the box office at ArtsQuest Center at 101 Founders Way, Bethlehem.

The event, for ages 21 and older, again will let attendees sample and shop from what a release said are "some of Pennsylvania’s best wineries" and retailers offering wine-adjacent goods.
In addition, the event will offer shopping from vendors and retailers — homemade candies, jewelry, home goods and more — while you sip.
There will be two sessions — from 1-3 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.-5 p.m.
Tickets to either offer admission to the event, a wine tote bag, unlimited wine samples (wineries reserve the right to limit samples at their tables), plus the ability to buy glasses and bottles of wine from the participating wineries.
Tickets also offer the ability to participate in a raffle for Winefest winery swag.
Tickets, at $51.50 until Feb. 7 and $62.50 after that, are available on the ArtsQuest website or at the box office at ArtsQuest Center at 101 Founders Way, Bethlehem.
Also available are VIP tickets to the earlier session that additionally offer an hour early (at noon) access, a bottle of wine from participating wineries and complementary use of the wine check.
VIP tickets are $76.50 until Feb. 7 and $86.50 after that.
The wine check functions similar to a coat check, offering "a convenient and secure way" to store wine bought during the event.
Purchased wine and other items can be tagged and left at a staffed wine check area for safekeeping. Guests will get a ticket and can retrieve their items at any time before leaving.
The event will be "a wine lovers’ dream," the ArtsQuest release said.
ArtsQuest started the event in 2023, after five years of successful summer sipping with its annual SangriaFest.
