42nd Vancouver International Wine Festival (Feb 22-Mar 1)

Red wine is apparently good for us, so it’s fitting that this year’s featured region at Vancouver International Wine Festival is France, home of Bordeaux and Burgundy reds, as well as flavourful whites and—of course—Champagne. The VIWF is Canada’s premier wine show and widely considered to be one of the best wine events in the world. The festival also raises funds for the Bard on the Beach Theatre Society, host of another beloved Vancouver festival. Get your tickets here, and hurry as many of the festival’s events are selling out quicker than you can say “merci”!
