A Couple of Luxury – Port and Cigars
Elegance. Pearls and Lace. Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn. Port and Cigars. Do you know that cigars have tasting notes? Did it ever occur to you to try the art of pairing a cigar with a port?
On both Saturday and Sunday, we will feature Texas-made Ports and Cigars in our popular Port and Cigar pairing seminar. Picking out the right libation to go with a cigar can be challenging in its own right and is also a double edge sword. If you have the wrong combination, the best cigar may taste horrible (or no taste at all) and your fine Port may taste like you wished you spent .25 a ounce instead of $25. Come try an entirely new experience! See the Seminars page for more information and schedule.
NOTE: This seminar has a fee (see pricing above). Tickets may only be purchased with Adult Passes when ordering online. Seating is limited and will most likely sell out prior to the festival. Tickets are not guaranteed to be available at the gate on Saturday.
Headliner Adult Passes - new!
Beginning at 8:00 PM on Saturday and Sunday, Headliner Adult Passes will be available at the gate.
This is a discounted pass for those that prefer to only come out at night, see the day's headliner band, and have some good wine or beer.
Passes include adult admission starting at 8PM, two glasses of wine at the Vintners Quarters, or two glasses of beer from the Brewer's Garden. Wine sampling is not included.
$25 per adult / $40 per couple

Purchase General Admission Tickets
Alcohol consumption without an adult wristband is prohibited on Festival grounds
While you may not have any alcohol without an Adult Wristband (included with an Adult Pass or All Access Pass), you may be able to "upgrade" a General Admission ticket to an Adult Pass at the font gate by paying the difference between the online General Admission price and the gate Adult Pass price. Upgrade availability based on attendance and an ID will be required.
How the Wine Sampler Adult Wristband's work:
How does it work? During the Festival, bring your printed ticket to the Front Gate, and you will receive a Austin Wine & Music Festival Wine Glass and a Wine Sampler wristband with 12 removable tabs.
- One tab equals one 1-ounce taste of any wine from any of our participating wineries
- Five tabs equal a 5-ounce glass of wine from any of our participating wineries, or 8-ounces of beer from the Brewer's Garden
Once your tabs are used, your wristband is still valid for general Festival admission during the day of your visit for music, seminars and other activities. Do NOT remove your wristband while in attendance at the Festival as that is how staff and police can recognize those participants who are 21 or over.
Additional wine tastes are $1/each, and wine or beer by the glass is $5.00 each. Only CASH is accepted at the winery tents. Cash and credit cards are accepted at the front gate, AW&MF Market Place, Brewers Garden & Vintner's Quarters. Several ATMs will be available on site.
2-day Adult wristbands include one 12-tab wristband on each of the two days, but only include ONE wine glass on your first day. The wine glass will need to be brought back on Day Two. If you do not bring your wine glass, one can be purchased at the AW&MF Market Place. No other type of glassware will be allowed on Festival grounds.
