Frequently Asked Questions
In the likely event of a sell out, we will place you on a waiting list for all events.
We cannot guarantee that you will be assigned to a particular event but completing all four preferences when you register will improve the likelihood that you will get your top choice. We give priority to Grand Cru Patrons. Purchasing the Grand Cru ticket package is the only way to guarantee your first-choice dinner. At registration on Thursday, July 18th, we will provide you with your Vintner Dinner assignment.
Weather in Sun Valley can range from warm or hot days to cool evenings. We suggest bringing a wrap with you for the evening events. Most events will take place outside and shoes appropriate for grass are recommended. A jacket is recommended for Vintner Dinners and the Gala. Summer resort wear and a sun hat are recommended for the Vine & Dine.
Please contact Peter Burke to arrange a proxy bidder.
By law, all registrants and guests attending Wine Auction-sponsored events, including the Saturday Vine & Dine, must be at least 21 years of age. No one under 21, including infants and toddlers, will be admitted to any function over the course of the Wine Auction Weekend. We recommend making childcare arrangements in advance.
Valet parking will be provided for the Wine Auction Gala evening at Dollar Mountain Lodge. Due to limited parking capacity, there will be no patron parking at Dollar Mountain Lodge for any events including the Vine & Dine (except for Grand Cru pass holders). A free shuttle service from the Pavilion parking lot will be provided for the Vine & Dine Plus and Vine & Dine attendees.
Registration may be paid for by check or credit card (American Express, MasterCard or Visa). Due to the limited availability of passes and the charitable fundraising purpose of the event, no refunds are available.
