The Festival returns with several new additions and expanded VIP offerings to elevate the guest experience.
Festival attendees will arrive dressed to impress in their chicest pink and/or white attire for a full day of listening to music from world-renowned artists and DJs, and indulging in wine, champagne, and rosé-inspired cocktails, local food trucks, life-sized games, live art installations, share-worthy moments, elaborate photo installations, and a variety of other new and exciting experiences.
“The inaugural La Fête du Rosé D.C. in 2019 exceeded all of our expectations and we’re confident the second annual event in 2020 will not disappoint,” said Founder Cleveland Spears, III. “From the food and drinks to the fashion, guests can expect all of their favorite elements of the festival, but even bigger and better and with some new and exciting surprises throughout.”
La Fête du Rosé will feature multiple rosé wine and champagne options from returning partner and presenter of the champagne VIP Lounge, as well as  VieVité, Maison Marcel and Tito’s Vodka. Attendees will enjoy signature offerings of high-end champagnes, and VieVité’s Côtes de Provence Rosé, which was selected by Condé Nast Traveler as their must-try rosé for Summer. Attendees will also have the opportunity to receive a special edition bottle from Maison Marcel designed by artist James Goldcrown.
