queer wine fest

2025

Queer Wine Fest is a wine tasting and celebration of the LGBTQ+ community that takes place annually on the last Sunday of June! We gather together queer-led, owned, and made wines from across the US in Dayton, OR for a day of celebrating queer wine and queer culture and most of all, queer joy.

The festival features tastings with 20+ queer led wineries, live music, queer led catering, and a whole slew of activities. Queer Wine Fest benefits Wine Country Pride, a local nonprofit dedicated to creating visible celebrations of the queer community while connecting all people through education and economic activity.
