Santa Fe Wine & Chile Fiesta
Sept. 24-28
Santa Fe cares. A lot. About everything. In fact, it seems like not a weekend goes by when you’re not invited to some fundraiser or festival or affair. But the Santa Fe Wine & Chile Fiesta isn’t about politics or stopping deadly diseases or supporting the flea circus. It’s just about eating great food, drinking great wine and having a helluva good time doing it. The wine and food seminars are a blast—if you can get registered in time—but the main event is the Grand Food and Wine Tasting, held every year on the grounds of the Santa Fe Opera. Here you will see anyone and everyone worth seeing. You will taste food from every restaurant in Santa Fe worth eating at (almost) and you will drink wines you cannot buy at Walgreens (or anywhere else, for that matter). The event reminds you that Santa Fe is an awfully big little town, and that’s why we love it.
