Tequila Festival at Vintage Wine & Spirits, Van Nuys

Vintage Wine and Spirits turns its Van Nuys shop into a tequila tasting room on Saturday, November 14, 2026. The pitch on the flyer is short and fair: good tequila, great company. If you're building a list of things to do in Los Angeles that don't involve a freeway crawl to the Westside, a San Fernando Valley tasting is a good one to bookmark.

When: Saturday, November 14, 2026, 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM Where: Vintage Wine and Spirits, 16938 Saticoy St, Van Nuys, CA 91406 Tickets: $20, which includes $20 in store credit Sessions: 5:00 to 7:00 PM and 7:00 to 9:00 PM

What to expect

The evening is split into two sessions, so pick the window that suits your night. The flyer lists a featured lineup that includes Tequila Fortaleza, Cazcanes, Riazul, Volcan de mi Tierra, Bozal mezcal, PKGD Group, Dama Fortuna and Storywood, with "and many more" on top. That mix covers small-batch blanco, aged expressions and a mezcal or two, so there's room to compare styles side by side instead of committing to a full bottle blind.

The ticket price comes with $20 back as store credit. In practice that means whatever you taste and love can go straight into a bag on your way out, and the entry fee isn't a sunk cost. Check the event page for the exact terms before you go, since the organizer sets how the credit applies.

Tips for going

Eat something before you arrive, and pace yourself between pours. Tastings run small, but they add up across a few brands. Plan your ride home ahead of time, because the shop sits on Saticoy Street in the Valley and a rideshare is the easy call.

Tickets run through Eventbrite, and the listed price there is a little higher than the flyer once fees are added. If you're hunting for LA events this weekend, note that this one is a couple of weeks out, so there's time to grab a spot in your preferred session. For anyone who wants to check on upcoming events in Los Angeles built around food and drink, this is the kind of low-key, shop-hosted tasting that rewards showing up curious.

Getting there

Vintage Wine and Spirits is at 16938 Saticoy St, Van Nuys, near the Lake Balboa end of the Valley. Parking in this part of Van Nuys is generally easy compared with central LA, but arrive a little early for the first session so you aren't circling when the pours start.
