What you'll do

Forget everything you think a wine tasting class is supposed to feel like, because Festivál's Wine Class is less "stuffy sommelier class" and more "the best Tuesday night you've had in a long time!" This is one of those NYC wine tasting experiences that actually lives up to the hype -- a guided tasting of 14 hand-picked wines (sparkling, rosé, white, and red) kicked off with a welcome Prosecco, paired with an artisanal meat and cheese board, and wrapped up with a full pour of your new personal favorite.

You'll sip your way through bottles like Sancerre, Chablis, Willamette Valley Pinot Noir, and yes, you will learn to say Grüner Veltliner with confidence. The wine knowledge you pick up along the way is the kind you'll actually use -- casually, at dinner, as you've always known it.

At $157 per person, this is one of the most fun things to do in NYC, whether you're planning a bachelorette party, dreaming up team building ideas that don't involve trust falls, or simply treating yourself to a night that's equal parts educational and delightful. Festivál is open seven days a week, 11 am to 9 pm, and attendees leave with discounted bottle pricing to boot! Come thirsty. Leave knowing things!

Festivál Café NYC

4.7 (22)

5k followers

Festivál Café is New York City's one-and-only Farm-to-Bar cocktail café, nestled on the Upper East Side at 61st and 2nd Avenue. More than a restaurant, more than a bar -- Festivál is a full-on experience, where scratch-made food and artfully crafted cocktails come together in a warm, lively neighborhood setting. The menu changes with the seasons, drawing on locally sourced, sustainably grown ingredients to create everything from fresh oysters and small plates to gourmet cuisine paired with show-stopping drinks. Whether you're stopping in for a weekday lunch, weekend bottomless brunch, or a cozy date night with live jazz, there's always something to celebrate.

At the heart of it all is Tyler Hollinger, co-owner and head mixologist, whose nearly two decades of experience orchestrating New York City's most dynamic events and experiences is evident in every corner of Festivál. With a background that spans entertainment -- acting and filmmaking for popular NYC-based shows -- to the art of the cocktail, Tyler brings a rare creative energy to everything he does. Under his guidance, Festivál Café isn't just raising the bar for what a cocktail café can be -- it's redefining it!
