South Beach Wine and Food Festival 2010 Tickets on Sale Now

If you’re even remotely as fanatic about food and wine as we are here at Haute Living, then it will be a pleasant bit of news for you to hear that the tickets to the South Beach Wine and Food Festival 2010 are finally now on sale.

The anticipated festival is schedule for February 25-28, 2010 and tickets officially went up for grabs on October 26. Don’t be fooled by the five month gap from ticket sale to festival however; it is highly encouraged to get your tickets as soon as possible. Unlike past years, there will not be a second block of tickets sold in early 2010, so anyone hoping to chow down on the hautest bites, sip the finest wines, and mingle with the Food Network stars should get those tickets post-haste.

The event is set to be a national, star-studded, four-day showcase of some of the most renowned winemakers, spirits producers, chefs, and culinary personalities. Obtaining your tickets now will ensure you’re going to be part of the delicious four-day event that includes an Amstel Light Burger Bash hosted by Rachel Ray, Wine Spectator’s Best of the Best at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach, the 2010 Tribute Dinner honoring chef Daniel Boulud, Cocktail Time with Sandra Lee at Casa Casuarina (also known as the former home to Gianni Versace), and Perrier-Jouët BubbleQ hosted by Emeril Lagasse and Friends, among others.

If you’re looking for the perfect gift for a “Foodie” friend or family member, there are now SOBE BUCKS available for purchase from October 1 – January 8. You can buy SOBE BUCKS worth $250, $500, or $1,000 to use toward purchasing tickets to the Festival.  As a bonus (as if us wine and food lovers needed one!), these can also be used toward purchasing tickets to many of the sold-out events, except seated events. The SOBE BUCKS tickets can only be purchased through the Festival’s ticketing manger, ashapiro@southernwine.com, or by calling (305) 627-1646.
