Raise a glass to Roaring Twenties glamour at the 39th Annual GrapeFest – A Texas Wine Experience presented by Bank of the West. Recently ranked the No. 7 Wine Festival in America by USA Today’s 10Best Readers’ Choice Awards, GrapeFest returns to Historic Main Street in Grapevine, September 11–14, 2025, with a dazzling lineup of tastings and experiences.
This year’s theme, The Grape Gatsby, celebrates the centennial of The Great Gatsby with a nod to the glitz and elegance of the 1920s. Guests can step back in time at the Champagne Terrace, sponsored by Hilton DFW Lakes, now reimagined as an elevated ticketed experience.
Tucked into charming Weems Alley, this luxe hideaway offers plush seating, live music, and stylish décor, along with a whimsical Florence-style wine window inspired by the centuries-old buchette del vino—an old-world tradition that today makes for the ultimate photo op.
Champagne Terrace ticket holders will also enjoy exclusive perks, including a private bar inside the air-conditioned Historic Palace Theatre, live entertainment, and private restrooms. Admission is $10 per person with all-day access, available on-site. Enhance the experience with a curated charcuterie box from Winestein’s, perfectly paired for leisurely sipping.
Beyond the terrace, festivalgoers can explore a variety of wine-forward highlights, from the People’s Choice Wine Tasting Classic sponsored by Audi Grapevine to the International Wine Experience sponsored by Gaylord Texan Resort, plus expert-led wine classes for enthusiasts eager to deepen their palate.
