Director's Notes

CHEERS TO BARD!

The Vancouver International Wine Festival is proud to have Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival as its charitable bene ciary. Since 1979, VanWineFest has raised $9.8 million for the performing arts, including $1.8 million towards the outstanding work Bard does onstage and in the community. The Bacchanalia Gala Dinner + Auction is one of the most spectacular food & wine events in Vancouver, and features one of the most exclusive wine auctions in North America. The Gala – along with the rest of VIWF 2021 – could not go ahead this year due to the pandemic. Instead, the Auction was reinvented to become a virtual experience that still celebrated and provided access to outstanding wines and wine experiences.

The Bacchanalia Online Auction took place April 27-May 1

Presented by

The Bacchanalia Online Auction offered wine enthusiasts, festival supporters, and ne wine collectors the opportunity to bid on exclusive wines and wine experiences while raising crucial funds for the Vancouver International Wine Festival and Bard on the Beach Shakespeare Festival. Our sincere gratitude to all the donors, sponsors, committee members and volunteers, and bidders who made the Bacchanalia Online Auction a tremendous success!

We look forward to being back at the Vancouver Convention Centre in February 2022 and sharing the love of wine in person again. JOIN US AT THE 43RD VANCOUVER INTERNATIONAL WINE FESTIVAL February 26–March 6, 2022
