Join us for the annual Capitola Art & Wine Kickoff Party - an afternoon of wine, delicious small plates, and easygoing elegance in a beautiful setting along Soquel Creek. Enjoy tastings from featured festival wineries, savor a variety of flavorful bites, browse a curated silent auction showcasing pieces from festival artists, and relax into a laid-back spring afternoon.
Proceeds from this festive kickoff celebrate and support the Capitola Art & Wine Festival, benefiting the Capitola-Soquel Chamber of Commerce, the nonprofit organizer behind the festival. Funds also help support local schools and community groups that lend their time and energy behind the scenes to make it all possible.
Guests (21+) will receive the official 2026 Capitola Art & Wine Festival commemorative glass for wine tasting.
