Annual Charlotte Beaujolais Festival & Fundraiser
8:30pm
The Annual Charlotte Beaujolais Festival is celebrating 31 years! This year, the Charlotte Beaujolais Festival will be featuring French wines from the Languedoc-Roussillon area, also well known for its incredible “art de vivre” and its rich history. The Beaujolais wines will be our wines of honor during the event, you can expect the Beaujolais Nouveau 2024! Please enjoy in moderation. Your ticket includes the wine tasting, dinner of Boeuf Bourguignon and veggies from Patrick's Gourmet, desserts from Renaissance Pâtisserie, live music, and, of course, our live auction. Splendid products and services await you! The event starts at 6:30pm and ends at 8:30pm. Hendrick Automotive Group Independence Center is the Hendrick headquarters and university center, with a large parking space available. Come to the main entrance and follow the Alliance Française flags.
Each year, the proceeds from the Charlotte Beaujolais Festival directly benefit French Education and Francophone Cultural events in the Charlotte area, such as very affordable French classes, French library, grants for French projects, Scholarships and support for French Immersion Programs and Francophone communities. This year, we'll use the funds to concentrate on building a youth library for La Petite École, our newly launched Saturday school for children 3 - 13 years old. Availability of reading material in French is an important way to ensure the success of our young learners.
