About this happenin
SAVOR St. Pete spreads a two-day tasting village across Vinoy Park each November, and one ticket covers unlimited samples. More than 100 restaurants, wineries, breweries and spirits brands pour and plate, so the afternoon works like a walking tour of the Tampa Bay dining scene, with live chef demonstrations on the cooking stage. Everyone gets a commemorative Savor wine glass on a lanyard, plus a festival tote to carry the rest home. It's strictly 21 and over, and every guest needs valid ID. General admission runs 1 pm to 4 pm each day, rain or shine, and VIP ticket holders get in an hour earlier for the spirits lounge and shaded seating. Drivers can use the Sundial or SouthCore garage or the Al Lang surface lot, and the Looper downtown shuttle is another way in. Chairs, blankets, outside food and large backpacks stay home, which makes a small crossbody the right call.
More in November: 17 other Tampa Bay events.
