Sip Happens for Locals Only: Act Now #PasoWineFest

Paso Wine Fest is back May 15 through 17, and if you live in San Luis Obispo County, your moment is now. On this episode of Up+Adam, Adam sits down with Krista Smith, Marketing and Communications Director for Paso Wine, to talk about the return of Paso Wine Fest and the limited-time Locals Only ticket pricing that’s turning heads. SLO County residents can purchase $99 General Admission tickets for the Grand Tasting before prices climb to $165 and eventually $175. It is Paso Wine’s way of saying thank you to the community that lives and works here. But this weekend is more than just a tasting. We are talking about 100 plus wineries pouring under one roof at the Paso Robles Event Center, interactive brand activations, chef-driven culinary bites, winery-hosted dinners, Paired Paso’s food and wine competition, and Sparkling Paso brunch to close it all out. It is a full transformation of the space and a celebration of what makes Paso Wine Country one of the most exciting regions in California right now. Krista also shares insight into the evolution of the festival, the culture of collaboration among Paso wineries, and the growing national attention the region continues to attract. If you love wine, community, or simply watching a region rise together, this conversation is for you. • Locals Only tickets must be purchased in person with proof of SLO County residency • Available at the Paso Robles Chamber of Commerce and San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce • Offer valid through February 28 Learn more and view the full schedule at: https://pasowine.com Follow Paso Wine for updates: https://www.instagram.com/pasowine https://www.facebook.com/PasoWine ******** Listen to Up+Adam with Adam Montiel: Official Website: adammontiel.com Apple Podcasts: Up+Adam on Apple Podcasts Spotify: Up+Adam on Spotify iHeartRadio: Up+Adam on iHeartRadio YouTube Music: Up+Adam on YouTube Music ******** CHECK OUT OUR WOODS HUMANE PET OF THE WEEK! ******** ADAM’S TEDX VIDEO IS HERE! ******** FOLLOW ADAM ON INSTAGRAM ********* Sincere Thanks to the current supporters of Up + Adam.
