The WineRival Tailgate Tasting brings together the fancy of the wine world with the simplicity of a traditional tailgate at a sporting event.

Hundreds of world-renowned wines and spirits are featured in a walk-around tasting alongside the final tournament in Chicago. Included are your typical fun foods seen at sporting events – as we like to have a lot of fun!

Your ticket purchase includes all of it for the Chicago event including being a spectator for the final competition. So bring the family and friends who like to have a helluva time!

A portion of ticket sale proceeds benefit the yearly charitable partner. Past and current partners include The James Beard Foundation and The Balance Project, which benefits the victims of the Highland Park tragedy on July 4th, 2022.
