Savor Cannon Beach Wine & Culinary Festival 

Cannon Beach is a culinary, artistic, and cultural gem on the Oregon Coast. Although many people visit our town to see attractions like Haystack Rock and the beach, many others visit during annual Cannon Beach events so they can see our best qualities when they’re on showcase. The Savor Cannon Beach Wine & Culinary Festival shows off Oregon and  Washington wine regions that you might not be able to experience otherwise. If you’re a self-proclaimed wine lover, plan your trip around mid-March, and you’ll be able to cultivate the ultimate Oregon wine experience during your stay at Tolovana Inn. 

Savor Cannon Beach Events Throughout the Festival 

The Savor Cannon Beach Wine & Culinary Festival is a series of six events where you can learn about wine, taste several kinds, and meet other wine lovers. Although the Cannon Beach events within the festival sometimes change from year to year, all of the events include wine tasting of some sort. Several tasting events are hosted at Tolovana Inn,  making it the ideal place to stay. 

Among the most popular is the Wine Walk, which features 40 northwest wineries set up in stations throughout Cannon Beach restaurants, art galleries, and shops, so you can explore town and participate in a wine tasting in Oregon at the same time. The festival concludes with a “Best of” competition. Here, some of the best wines are brought together, and the audience determines which vintage is the best of the best. At some events, acclaimed chefs have put together bite-size appetizers, so pair your wine with a tasty bite. For more details about this festival, check here.

Stay at Tolovana Inn For Cannon Beach Events 

Tolovana Inn typically hosts many of the events throughout the festival, making the hotel a convenient accommodation to attendees. For other annual Cannon Beach events, Tolovana Inn is in a great spot for visitors to travel to most happenings and attractions without going far as well, such as the Sandcastle Contest or Whale Watch Weeks.   For more information about staying with us and other Cannon Beach events throughout the year, visit our website or give us a call at 800-333-8890.
