They will be eligible for a chance to win a pair of concert tickets for one show of their choice each week, from now through the end of the year. Participants must provide their email to a City Winery staff member in order to be in the running.
During the event, the Founder and CEO of City Winery, Michael Dorf will give guests an intimate tour of the newly completed location. He will kick-off the tour with a toast at 5 p.m. to celebrate this iconic day.

City Winery Philadelphia offers a unique combination of wine and concertgoers that cannot be found anywhere else in the city. The brand new location includes two performance venues; a 300-seat intimate concert hall and a smaller 150-capacity loft space. Both of these venues offer full food and beverage service during concerts and have trained staff to provide superior service without compromising the listening and/or viewing experience. The 150-seat restaurant will serve locally sourced dishes crafted by Executive Chef, Jason Heim, and house-made wines, crafted with grapes carefully sourced from acclaimed vineyards on the West Coast. The main entrance to the location is at the corner of 10th and Filbert Street and the hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 11 p.m Sunday through Thursday and 11 a.m. to 12 p.m on Friday and Saturday.
