The story

About this festival.

#WINEsday | Wine Club Wednesday Social Meet & Greet w/ Fellow Wine Lovers is a monthly wine tasting social held on the first Wednesday of every month at Holiday Wine Cellar in Escondido, California — tickets are $20 for non-members, and the 2-hour event runs from 5 to 7 PM inside the Beverage Bunker, a speakeasy-style underground events room.

The format centers on Holiday Wine Cellar's Wine Club selections for the month, poured alongside fellow club members and general patrons. Wine Club members attend free and may bring 1 guest at no charge, while non-members pay $20 at the door or in advance. The Beverage Bunker, described as an authentic underground wine cellar, gives the event a distinctive setting that separates it from standard retail tastings. Holiday Wine Cellar has been a family-owned landmark in North County San Diego since 1965, and the #WINEsday format reflects that retail-meets-community identity — a recurring social rather than a ticketed production.

#WINEsday | Wine Club Wednesday Social Meet & Greet w/ Fellow Wine Lovers is structured for accessibility: the $20 entry is one of the lower price points among regional tasting events, the 2-hour window is easy to fit into a weekday evening, and no wine background is required. The event calendar is updated daily on the Holiday Wine Cellar website, so prospective attendees should confirm the specific date before purchasing. The next listed date is May 6, 2026.

Holiday Wine Cellar's staff specializes in collectible Napa Valley wines, French wines, vintage Port, and sparkling wines, and that expertise informs the monthly selections poured at #WINEsday. The Escondido store also maintains a 24-bottle self-serve wine bar and a walk-in Beer Cave, making it a well-established retail destination in San Diego County for those who want to explore beyond the monthly social.
