 takes place November 1–2, 2025 at Vinoy Park, located in the heart of downtown St. Petersburg, FL.

General Admission:  1 PM – 4 PM
VIP Entry:  12 PM – 4 PM

Is there a dress code?
Think “downtown chic.” Stylish and comfortable. No bathing suits, please.

Is there an age limit?
Yes. All guests must be 21 or older with a valid ID. No exceptions or refunds for underage ticket purchases.

Can I bring my kids or an infant?
We love families, but this food and drink event is strictly 21+ only. No children, toddlers, or infants will be admitted, and there will be no refunds for guests who bring minors.

Can I bring my dog?
Only certified service animals are allowed entry into the event . Emotional service animals (ESA) will not be permitted. 

Please see descriptions below for approved service animals:

Service Animals: Under Florida law and the federal Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), people with disabilities may bring their service animals to all “public accommodations,” including restaurants, museums, hotels, stores, and places of amusement like sporting events and convention centers. A service animal is typically a dog (or, in some cases, a miniature horse) that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of a person with a physical, mental, psychiatric, sensory, or intellectual disability.

• Emotional Support Animals (ESAs): While ESAs are recognized under the Fair Housing Act and have certain protections in housing situations, they do not have the same public access rights as service animals under the ADA and Florida law. This means that venues hosting public events are not legally required to allow ESAs, though they may choose to do so at their discretion.

• Distinction is Key: The critical difference lies in the training and tasks performed. Service animals are trained to perform specific tasks directly related to a person’s disability, while ESAs primarily provide emotional support or comfort.

Contact us at: info@savortheburg.com with specific questions about your service animal.

Are bags or backpacks allowed?
Large backpacks are not permitted. Small handbags or crossbodies are recommended. All bags are subject to search at entry.

Can I bring my own food or drinks?
No outside food or drink allowed. But don’t worry—your ticket includes unlimited samples from 100+ top restaurants, wineries, and brands!

Can I bring my own seating?
No external chairs or blankets, please. VIP guests will have access to shaded lounge seating.
