Uncorked: Detroit

Uncorked: Detroit is a grand tasting wine festival held annually on May 2, 2026, in Detroit, Michigan — part of a multi-city series organized by Uncorked Wine Festivals, with general admission tickets starting at $65. The event brings together wine pours, live music, and gourmet food trucks in a single-day format designed for adults 21 and over. VIP and designated driver ticket pricing had not been announced at the time of publication.

Uncorked Wine Festivals describe their events as a complete experience pairing wine with music and food in distinctive venues across multiple cities. The Detroit edition is one of several stops in the national series, which also includes Chicago, Nashville, and other markets. Attendees can use the official Uncorked app to browse wines being sampled — including bottle images and descriptions — rate pours, build a personal wine list, access event maps, and find food vendor information before or during the event.

Practical details worth noting before buying a ticket: Uncorked: Detroit is strictly 21 and over, and valid ID is required for every attendee, including designated drivers. The event runs rain or shine, and the organizer does not offer refunds. Designated driver tickets are available for purchase at the door; contact info@uncorkedwinefestivals.com for pricing specifics. GA admission is $65; VIP details were listed as TBA.

Detroit sits within reach of Michigan's two major wine-producing peninsulas — the Leelanau and Old Mission peninsulas — both recognized American Viticultural Areas known for cool-climate varieties including Riesling, Pinot Grigio, and Pinot Noir. Whether the Detroit edition features Michigan producers specifically has not been confirmed in available sources.
