Kitsap Wine Festival

After 17 incredible years, we've made the bittersweet decision to bring the Kitsap Wine Festival to a close. We are immensely grateful to each and every one of you who made this event a vibrant and unforgettable experience: our dedicated attendees, inspiring vendors, live bands, valued sponsors, and countless volunteers. Your passion and commitment have been the driving force behind our success. 
 
Throughout the years, the Kitsap Wine Festival has provided a unique platform for supporting local non-profits here in Kitsap County. We've witnessed countless connections, multiple donations and wonderful success stories from the incredible minds who have worked together to make this event a huge success. 
 
This decision was not taken lightly, but we've concluded that it's time to embark on new ventures. 
 
While this chapter closes, the memories and impact of the Kitsap Wine Festival will forever resonate.  
 
We encourage you to stay connected with us as we explore new ways to foster community and continue our mission at the Kitsap Conference Center. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram and subscribe to our newsletter for updates. 
 
Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey. We wish you all the best and hope our paths cross again. 
 
Sincerely, 
The Kitsap Wine Festival Team

This year's festival is August 9 from 2 pm-5 pm!

Since it began 17 years ago, the Kitsap Wine Festival has featured music, delicious food, and of course, great wines. You'll have the opportunity to explore and discover a wide variety of wines by sampling bottles featured by our ever-expanding slate of participating wineries. Find a new favorite and take it home. Our retail wine shop provides an expanded selection of wines and an assortment of fun wine-related treasures. You'll want to complement all of your delightful sipping by noshing delectables offered by our amazing food vendors. Round out your day of summer fun out with games like cornhole and ladder golf on the gorgeous waterfront at the Kitsap Wine Festival! We're excited to host Jim Basnight and WEPA for live music performances during this year's festival. 

Thank you for attending the 2025 Kitsap Wine Festival and for your support of Peninsula Dance Theatre. Peninsula Dance Theatre is honored to be this year’s beneficiary of the Kitsap Wine Festival’s non-profit fundraising. PDT has been an integral part of the arts here in beautiful downtown Bremerton since 1973 and is proudly women owned and operated. Their company of pre-professional ballet dancers is proud to carry on our 50-year tradition of bringing ballet performances to the Kitsap County community. Under the artistic direction of Mallory Morrison and Nicole Cisler, their company dancers showcase our talents at performances throughout the year, including their Nutcracker performance, spring ballet, and exciting Winter Showcase, which features original works choreographed by their own student company members and artistic directors. We thank you for your support of Peninsula Dance Theatre at this year’s Kitsap Wine Festival and encourage you to experience the joy our dancers bring by attending one (or all) of their performances.
