Let the Games Begin!
Each year the NWF kicks off with a reception celebrating the arrival of our Luminaries. Join our winemakers, chefs, sommeliers and partners at the Nantucket Hotel as we raise a glass with the talent and enjoy the first tastes of NWF 2026.
Festival friends come together for the first of their many memorable NWF experiences. Vintners pour the best of the best, while our Island chefs demonstrate why Nantucket is known as a culinary destination.
