Theatre North West's International Wine Festival is a two-part event.
The evening's wine tasting is always a sell out but if the afternoon appeals to local wine lovers then there's still opportunity to enjoy the festival at Exploration Place on Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m.
The same wines will be available for the afternoon event as for the evening event and also sees the fifth annual Golden Cork Restaurant Challenge, a version of the Iron Chef where local chefs will compete for best culinary and wine pairing.
The afternoon's event has a more relaxed atmosphere, offering the taste buds B.C. and international wines.
The wine festival is Theatre North West's biggest annual fundraising. Safe rides home are provided. Tickets are $30 by calling 250-563-6969 or at Books & Co., 1685 Third Ave.
