City Winery, the culinary and cultural experience for urban wine enthusiasts and live entertainment venue, opens in St. Louis Saturday, March 18 at City Foundry STL with a full schedule of live performances. City Winery will offer its signature intimate concerts and live performances, food and wine experiences, private event spaces, upscale dining options, and a fully functioning winery.
For a limited time, those who sign up for the City Winery newsletter at www.citywinery.com/stlouis are entered to win a Golden Ticket — two tickets to all 2023 shows. The winner will be announced before the March 18 grand opening.
“Opening City Winery in St. Louis is something that I have wanted to do since I started the brand in 2008,” says Michael Dorf, City Winery founder and CEO. “Having spent several years living in the city while I was in college it feels right to once again join this incredible community within the historic building of City Foundry STL.”
From big names in rock and jazz to up-and-coming local artists, comedy, podcast recordings and much more, City Winery at City Foundry STL is St. Louis’ new live event epicenter. Ticket holders can dine during the show and can pre-order wine to have a bottle waiting at their table when they arrive. The venue will seat 225 guests. VinoFile club members can buy advance tickets and pay no fees.
City Winery’s Barrel Room Restaurant & Wine Bar is a welcoming space to relax and unwind. The menu is wine-inspired, globally-influenced, and locally-sourced, perfect for pairing with City Winery’s own vintages, extensive wine offerings, craft beer and cocktails. The venue features the company’s proprietary tap system with eco-friendly glasses of wine straight from stainless steel kegs. The Barrel Room Restaurant will be open for dinner service. Before or after concerts guests can enjoy the tasting room for a flight of wines or the full bar. With a variety of functional spaces, City Winery can host a memorable night out for two or an unforgettable private event for up to 400 people.
