CHARLOTTE WINE + FOOD WEEK PRESENTED BY TRUIST | April 23 - APRIL 27, 2025

Join us for Charlotte Wine + Food Week presented by Truist this Spring for our 37ᵗʰ year of fundraising! We’ve been crafting exciting wine and food pairing experiences since our inception in 1989, and this year’s programming stands to delight and entice just like any other as we come together in celebration over fine wine, food, fun, and fundraising! Attendees of this cherished Charlotte cultural institution will not just be imbibing the world’s finest wines, savoring the creations of the area’s top chefs, hobnobbing with renowned vintners and somms, adding to their wine knowledge, and bidding on fantastic one-of-a-kind items, they will also be helping Charlotte-area children.

Our week will kick off with the opening of our week-long Online Charity Auction (participation is free and fully open to the public!), followed by an array of restaurant vintner dinners. Friday we will be having our annual Collectors Gala & Live Auction - a night fit for the savviest wine connoisseur! The week continues with the signature walk-around Grand Tasting on Saturday night featuring 100+ carefully selected wines, tastings from Charlotte-area restaurants, and live music. Back by popular demand, the week wraps up on Sunday with the Rosé Brunch followed by our Au Revoir Closing Dinner, coinciding with the close of the week-long auction.

Proceeds for 2025 benefit four local children’s charities; A Child’s Place - a program of Thompson, Augustine Literacy Project, Digi-Bridge, and Wayfinders. We’ve donated over $7 million to area charities since our inception with almost $1 million of that raised in the past two years. We are expanding our reach and impact like never before with the support of YOU, the philanthropists and wine and food enthusiasts in our community. We look forward to raising a glass with you April 23-27!
