Frequently Asked Questions
Is this another boring fundraiser with an “adequate” chicken dinner?
Not even! If we were any more casual, we would be in our pajamas. Hops & Grapes is a Wine, Spirit, and Beer TASTING event – that’s right – tasting event! Enhanced by great food, live music, dancing (should the moment inspire you), and a few surprises along the way. Our Golden Tickets have become a hugely popular part of our event and this year we are rolling out a special Cigar Bar experience for a select 100 guests.
Can anyone attend this event?
This is a sampling event of our best local brews, spirits, and some really unique Napa wines. Therefore, this is a 21 and over event. Let your kiddos stay home and get an Uber to enjoy a night of drinking, music, and connecting with old, and new, friends.
Should we do a sponsorship or get tickets?
A sponsorship is the best way to secure a full table for you and your friends/coworkers and provides the greatest support for our student programming. However, you may absolutely buy individual tickets to attend, while supplies last. This event will sell out.
How do we know ahead of time what is being auctioned off?
If you are registered to attend the event, through a sponsorship or an individual ticket, you must provide us with your email address so we can send you a link to pre-shop our auction. We offer many travel packages and some of our guests like to plan ahead with friends to ensure they have the top bid.
