The Guardsmen: Sip, Savor & Spark Wine Tasting

Join The Guardsmen for a tasting of more than 65 wines in the Gateway Pavilion (Pier 2) at Fort Mason Center For Arts & Culture on Saturday, November 15, 2025. The ­“Sip, Savor & Spark” tasting experience happens from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. (Changemaker ticket holders enjoy early admission at 1:00 p.m. and receive exclusive access to gourmet food tastings.)

With the Golden Gate Bridge for a glamorous backdrop, this is more than a tasting. It’s a chance to slow down, share stories, and spark connections with wineries and others who appreciate a good pour and great company.

Tiered ticket prices range from $75 to $215 ($88.64 to $251.46 with taxes and fees). A charcuterie station is available for all guests, as well as exclusive hors d’oeuvres stations from a Napa Valley catering company for Changemakers ticket holders. A water station is also available for all.

Here’s What’s In Store:

• Wine Country Comes To You. Spend the afternoon sampling exceptional wines from more than 65 premier California vineyards, all without leaving San Francisco.
• Curious Or Seasoned? Everyone’s Welcome: Whether you’re a seasoned wine enthusiast or just getting started, enjoy a no-pressure, welcoming space to explore your palette.
• Incredible Value. Many of these wineries typically charge $65 to $150 per tasting. Sip, Savor & Spark tickets unlock access to explore and enjoy them all in one unforgettable setting.
• Sip With Purpose. Not only do ticket purchases confer access to an incredible wine tasting event, proceeds also send at-risk San Francisco Bay Area kids to summer camp and provide scholarships.
