Hopewell Wine Tasting Festival


Join us for the 13th Annual Hopewell Wine Tasting Festival. Thirteen years ago, the Kiwanis Club of Hopewell was looking for a fund-raiser to increase our philanthropic support to the youth of the Hopewell/Prince George community. Out of nowhere, one of our members suggested the idea of a "Wine Festival" in Hopewell. Although there was doubt that such an event was possible, four members took off driving the roads of Virginia to find vineyards and wineries who believed in us and desired to both support the youth of our area and expand their brand footprint. From that small start to now, our attendance has zoomed from a few hundred attendees to 1,000. During the past eleven years, we provided over $55,000 in awarded scholarships thanks to our loyal business sponsors and dedicated patrons. During this time our event appealed to both seasoned wine drinkers and casual wine drinkers alike, in a relaxed and fun environment.
