Uncorked: San Diego Returns to the Embarcadero for its 11th Year
Uncorked: San Diego is back for its 11th year, and this time it’s headed back to Embarcadero Marina Park North for another afternoon party at the park. If you’ve been before, you know what to expect – a great lineup of wines, good food, lawn games, and live music in one of the best outdoor settings in the city.
If you haven’t, this is a solid way to spend a Saturday afternoon with friends along the waterfront.
Over 150 Wines, Spirits, and Zero-Proof Options
The main draw is the tasting lineup, which includes over 150 wines and bubblies from across the globe. Beyond the wine, there are spirits, canned cocktails, and some incredible zero-proof wines and mocktails for those who want to enjoy the festival experience without the alcohol.
It’s a well-rounded selection that gives everyone something to sip on throughout the afternoon.
Lawn Games, Food Trucks, and Live Music
Beyond the tasting, there’s a lawn game lounge for some friendly competition, local food trucks serving up delicious bites (sold separately from tickets), and DJs spinning a perfectly curated mix of live music to keep the afternoon energy going.
Fun photo installations are scattered throughout the event, giving you plenty of reasons to pull out your phone and document the day.
Two Ticket Options
Early admission at $85 gets you in at 1 PM for four full hours of tasting with a smaller capacity crowd, plus exclusive bonus wines poured during that first hour. General admission at $70 gets you in at 2 PM with the event wrapping up at 5 PM. Both ticket types include all your tasting, with food sold separately.
Bring your friends, your picnic blankets, and your thirst for a proper afternoon at the park.
Benefiting Urban Surf 4 Kids
The event benefits local nonprofit Urban Surf 4 Kids, which provides water therapy and surf camps for orphan and foster youth. So not only do you get a great afternoon out, but your ticket purchase goes toward something meaningful in the San Diego community.
See you there!
