California Jazz & Wine Fest Signing Up Wine, Beer, Boutique Spirits & Food Exhibitors

The 5th annual California Jazz & Wine Fest will have a new location this year: the Four Seasons Hotel in Westlake Village. The festival is seeking wine, beer, boutique spirits and food exhibitors. Artists and craftspeople are also being encouraged to participate. The festival, presented by Rotary Club of Westlake Village Sunrise, will be held on Sunday, April 17 from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

The festival has set aside room for 45 beverage exhibitors, 25 food exhibitors and 30 craft vendors.

“With our move to the Four Seasons, we are in a unique position to become the preeminent jazz and wine festival between Los Angeles and Santa Barbara,” says Nadine Rothermel, festival chairperson and Rotary past president.
Headlining this year’s musical lineup is Tom Scott, veteran composer, arranger, producer, musical director and saxophonist. Scott has earned 3 Grammy Awards and 14 Grammy nominations over four decades

Musicians will be performing on two stages—in the main ballroom and in an adjacent enclosed tent. Wine, beer, spirits and food tasting stations and artisan booths will be in and around both venues. A maximum 1,500 people can attend the festival.

Tickets are $100 per person/general admission and $150 per person/VIP admission (VIP tickets include one-hour early entry for tasting, valet parking, preferred seating and other amenities). Both include unlimited beverage and food tasting and a tasting glass. Festival goers must be age 21 or older.

Money raised at the festival will benefit Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles, in particular, the Mark Taper and Johnny Mercer Artists Program that focuses on healing the whole child through art and music. Additionally, the event will benefit other Rotary charities, both locally and globally.
