The story

About this festival.

Jungle Jim's International Wine Festival is the 17th annual tasting staged by Jungle Jim's International Market at its Oscar Event Center in Fairfield, Ohio, on Saturday, November 14, 2026, with more than 400 wines from around the world poured in one evening. General admission enters at 7 PM (check-in from 6:30) and includes light bites, a commemorative glass and the market's buyer's guide; wines you like can be ordered on the spot through the Buyer's Club and picked up later.

For 2026 the entire Oscar Event Center becomes a VIP-only space for the first time, with gourmet bites, live entertainment and time with the importers and producers at a slower pace, while general admission tastes in the Oscar Station. Non-drinker tickets and a bus add-on from the Eastgate store are also sold. Jungle Jim's is the six-acre international grocery north of Cincinnati, and the festival is one of the largest wine tastings in the region. Pricing is on the ticket page.
