I’m still buzzing with delight at how amazing our Wine & Wigs Q***r Wine Fest turned out. It sold out of tickets, which is amazing - 100ish people came, most wearing wigs! What a freaking vibe you fabulous people helped create! And more incredible that together, we were able to support LGBTQ+ wine producers and small businesses to kick off Pride Month.
This was Vinos Pingüinos biggest event yet and it was a massive success. There are so many people to thank who made this event possible, starting with the producers and reps who poured the wines:
Lük Wylde of Lares Wines & Statera Cellars
Diana Schultz Augustina Cellars
Ken Dillon Footprint Wine Tap
Kayleigh Blome pouring L A N D M A S S
Our girl Viv Kennedy RAM Cellars
And Kathryn Olson Radio Wine Co pouring Birdhorse Wines & anonimas.wines
Our caterer Sabrina who made bad ass arancini Sabrina Brzusek
DJs Dead Air & DJ Mamma Casserole playing the tunes
Photographer Hunter Boen of Moonship Creative who filled in at the last minute taking many of these photos and manning the booth.
Our host and event partner Birch Road Clubhouses
And special shoutout to Ashley, Dana, Becca & Charlotte for all your help setting up, taking down, and during the event. We could not have done it without you out you!
We will definitely be bringing Wine & Wigs back again next year. Thank you so much to all who attended. And, happy Pride from Vinos Pingüinos 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
