Bonjour, Beaujolais! French wines, Parisian fare and a comical cabaret usher in Beaujolais 2015 — an evening celebrating the worldwide release of Beajolais Nouveau wine.

Fresh from Paris, French cabaret singer Ô de mon Chéri will also deliver a charming performance.

Guests have the option of a VIP experience, which allows admission one hour earlier than main event tickets and includes an exclusive wine tasting and caviar from Roederer USA. Master sommelier Virginia Philip will be available to discuss the wines.
