Sandy Springs Wine Festival extends early bird pricing after Roswell Wine Festival cancellation

The Sandy Springs Wine Festival has extended its special early bird 10 percent discount pricing until Aug. 31 to include wine lovers from the Roswell Wine Festival, which will not be held in 2025.

“We want to extend this early bird offer to our friends in Roswell,” said Adam Forrand, President and CEO of the Greater Perimeter Chamber. “Their festival has been a beloved community tradition, and we’re excited to continue that spirit here in Sandy Springs.”

According to a post on its website, Peggy Robinson and Dwight Cunningham, the organizers of the Roswell Wine Festival, announced that the 2025 event would be cancelled for a variety of reasons, including rising costs and a date change that affected its attendance.

“A significant turning point came last year when the City of Roswell required we move the date we traditionally held for 10 years,” the announcement said. “This change had a substantial negative impact on attendance, with ticket sales down 20% year-over-year. For a one day event, this is hard to recover from.”
