Art enthusiasts and wine connoisseurs will once again gather at the Scottsdale Waterfront as the 14th Annual Scottsdale Waterfront Fine Art & Wine Festival returns Jan. 31 through Feb. 2. Hosted by Thunderbird Artists, the event will feature 125 juried fine artists, live entertainment, and a selection of premium wines and spirits.
This year’s festival will spotlight mixed-media sculptor Dakota Pratt, known for his intricate bottle cap creations. His work, which transforms discarded materials into visually striking sculptures, has garnered recognition from collectors and critics alike.
Festival goers can explore a diverse array of artwork, including oil and acrylic paintings, photography, and sculptures made from bronze, metal, glass, and wood. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet the artists and purchase one-of-a-kind pieces.
Wine and spirit tastings will be available for an additional fee. Participating wineries include Del Rio Springs Winery, Blue Collar Vineyards, and Celestial Artisan Meadery, among others. Local distilleries and microbreweries will also be on-site, offering a range of craft beverages.
Live entertainment will feature performances at the Sanderson Lincoln Pavilion, including a Tim McGraw tribute by Nashville recording artist Adam D. Tucker and music from multi-instrumentalist Vibhas Kendzia.
The festival will be held daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Scottsdale Waterfront in Old Town Scottsdale. Admission is $5 for adults, and parking is free. Wine tasting packages, which include an engraved souvenir glass and eight tasting tickets, will be available for $15.
