Thursday September 24, 5:00PM – 11:00PM

Celebrate 75 years of wine, culture, and community at Dîner en Violet — an elegant open-air dining experience launching the anniversary year of the Niagara Grape & Wine Festival. Set beneath the canopy of century-old trees in Montebello Park, this exclusive evening transforms the historic grounds into a stunning violet-hued garden party inspired by Niagara’s celebrated wine country.

Violet-adorned guests will be welcomed with a glass of sparkling wine before taking their place at beautifully styled harvest tables draped in linen and adorned with lush purple florals. Throughout the evening, a private bar will offer specialty cocktails alongside curated Niagara wine selections available for purchase.

At the heart of the experience is a gourmet picnic-style dinner, where guests will choose from three specially crafted picnic baskets designed exclusively for Dîner en Violet by some of Niagara’s top chefs — each inspired by the flavours of the region and perfectly paired for a summer evening under the stars.

As the sun sets, the celebration continues with exclusive access to a private VIP viewing area for the live SLOAN concert. Complete with cozy firepits, Muskoka chairs, and relaxed lounge spaces, Dîner en Violet blends sophisticated dining, live music, and Niagara hospitality into one unforgettable night.

Your ticket includes VIP event access, a sparkling welcome, reserved seating, your first glass of wine, premium place settings and decor, and a concert ticket. A gourmet picnic dinner selection must be chosen at checkout. Additional wine & cocktails available for purchase.
