If you enjoy wine, good food, and events that actually feel elevated — this one’s worth putting on your calendar.
📅 March 5–7, 2026📍
Various locations in Puerto Vallarta (main event at Puerto Mágico)
Vinoma Fest returns to Vallarta for its fourth edition, bringing three days of wine, gastronomy, and oceanfront experiences.
Here’s what to expect:
🌿 Thursday, March 5 – Gala de Sabores (Casa Velas, Marina Vallarta)
An intimate garden evening featuring 5 acclaimed chefs from Mexico and Latin America.It’s a roaming 10-course experience with wine pairings — not a sit-down dinner. Think:
• Chef stations under the stars
• Sommeliers pairing wines with each course
• Upscale but relaxed atmosphere
This is the more refined, smaller-crowd experience of the weekend.
⛳ Friday, March 6 – Golf + Professional Tasting Experience
Morning: Vinoma Golf Cup at Vista Vallarta Golf Club
Afternoon: A special tasting event at Café des Artistes in collaboration with Concours Mondial de Bruxelles, where attendees taste wines like professional judges.
If you’ve ever wanted to understand wine at a deeper level, this is the educational day.
🌊 Saturday, March 7 – Grand Wine & Food Festival at Puerto Mágico
This is the big one.
• 300+ wines
• 40+ wineries
• Multiple food pairing stations
• Live music
• Open-air seaside setting
• Sunset over Banderas Bay
It runs from mid-afternoon into the evening and is designed as a walk-around tasting experience. No rigid schedule. Just explore at your own pace.
💰 Tickets & Pricing
General Access: approx. MX$1,450
Premium Access: approx. MX$2,500 (includes upgraded glass, engraving, tote, and access to a special tasting session)
Tickets are limited — this isn’t meant to be a massive overcrowded event.
📍 Location Notes for Expats
The main event is at Puerto Mágico (Maritime Terminal) in Marina Vallarta — about 10–15 minutes by taxi from Centro or Zona Romántica.
Early March weather here is ideal: warm, dry, and perfect for sunset events.
For those of us living here, events like this are a reminder of why Vallarta continues to level up its culinary scene. It’s not just beaches anymore — the wine and gastronomy culture is getting serious.
