NYCWFF consists of over 80 different events throughout New York City. Our events are located all throughout Manhattan and Brooklyn in many quintessential event locations. Our 2024 Festival’s Signature Pier Parties and Grand Tasting will be hosted at Brooklyn Army Terminal, in Sunset Park.
While a majority of our events are held indoors, our expansion to the Brooklyn Army Terminal allows for increased tenting, so that we can celebrate in rain or shine. All tickets are non-refundable.
