Published on January 29, 2024
It’s that time of year! Sunriver Resort is hosting its second annual, month-long Food & Wine Festival, showcasing the Pacific Northwest’s rich farming and food heritage. Kicking off February 1st through the 29th, the gastronomic and vinous celebration will draw connoisseurs from near and far to experience exclusive tasting events, cooking classes, live music and so much more.
And best of all? Caldera Springs residents are just minutes from the action. Not only that, the reimagined Lake House, arriving Summer 2024, will play host during next year’s festival. So, what’s ahead for the month of February? Here’s the ultimate guide to this year’s Food & Wine Festival lineup.
Saturday Supper Club
Lodge Kitchen | Every Saturday in February | 5:00pm – 8:30pm
