Big Sur Food & Wine Festival Opens November 5 With Opening Night, a Wine Walkabout and a Grand Party
The 2026 Big Sur Food & Wine Festival runs November 5-7, 2026, along the Big Sur coast in Monterey County, California. The Big Sur Food & Wine Foundation says this year marks the foundation's 10th anniversary, and that the festival has relaunched planning and ticket sales after two significant fires and another closure of Highway 1, which is now open again.
Events on November 5 include the Magical Mystery Tour and Opening Night at Alila Ventana Big Sur. November 6 features a Panel Tasting, Hiking with Stemware, the Wine Walkabout at Post Ranch Inn and the Annual Sommelier Dinner; the UMIBE izakaya experience that evening is listed as sold out.
November 7 brings Bubbles & Brushes in the redwoods, a live auction and the Grand Party at the Henry Miller Memorial Library. The organizer notes that shuttle service to the library is mandatory, with no parking at or near the venue, and shuttle tickets are purchased separately.
Tickets are sold per event, with the full schedule and ticket links on the organizer's official site, bigsurfoodandwine.org. The foundation says the festival raises funds for local nonprofits and community programs. (Source: Big Sur Food & Wine Festival official site)
