This year, Alys Beach will welcome some of the renowned vintners and local culinary favorites to a more intimate series of events they are calling Intermezzo. Rather than canceling the entire weekend, they are taking a pause from the large-scale annual festival with smaller, more tightly controlled events. Guests will be greeted upon arrival and promptly escorted to an assigned seat. Everyone will be provided a mask and hand sanitizer, and encouraged to use them. Staff will be wearing masks at all times. Tables will host no more than ten people. Tickets sold out almost immediately to all events due to the limited capacity. Check back for details on the 2022 festival.
