Saturday night, starting at 7:00 PM and lasting until 10:00 PM, the Three Rivers Convention Center Great Hall will be a fabulous concentration of Northwest Wines. Over 100 wineries are expected to be pouring samples of more than 400 wines. During the evening, the award winners are announced in a festive display marking the winning wines with medals and the positioning of balloons to signal where the bronze, silver and gold medals can be found. Finally, the much-anticipated "Best of Show Award" is presented to the wine deemed by the judges to best represent the finest example of craftsmanship and style.
Tickets for the Gala Wine Tasting will be available through Ticketmaster, Ticketmaster outlets and the Toyota Center Box Office at the Toyota Center, which is next to the Convention Center.Saturday night, starting at 7:00 PM and lasting until 10:00 PM, the Three Rivers Convention Center Great Hall will be a fabulous concentration of Northwest Wines.

During the Gala Wine Tasting, the Silent Auction also takes place. Convention Center doors will open at 6:00 PM for viewing and initial bidding on items. The Silent Auction features many one-time opportunities for wines and wine-related arts and gifts. Part of the proceeds from the Silent Auction are earmarked to support the Tri-Cities Wine Society's educational fund through the Washington Wine Industry Foundation for students in area viticulture or enology programs.
