The wait is over, your Hogwarts letter has finally arrived!

Mark your calendar for WineFest 2025 — March 7-8.

For more than two decades, Tampa Theatre’s signature fundraiser WineFest has shown up for some of the most important moments in cinematic history with themes like How the West was Wine, The Vineyard of Oz, Rebel Without a Cork, Forrest Grape, and this year’s Grapebusters, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to bring the magic back to the Theatre in 2025 with Harry Potter and the Goblet of Wine.

“Dobby has heard of your greatness, but of your goodness, Dobby never knew.” As the organization’s biggest annual fundraiser, WineFest has raised more than $1.5 million over the past 22 years for the non-profit Theatre.

And continuing the yearly tradition, WineFest guests are encouraged to dress as their favorite character or come in Harry Potter-inspired cocktail attire. Always.
