Winterfest: This weekend in L.I. Wine Country
Action at the wineries has slowed as Old Man Winter tightens his grip on the North Fork, which means it’s about time for Winterfest.
The popular jazz concert series will run for six weekends during February and March, with the first concerts kicking off the weekend before Valentine’s Day. Admission to the jazz concerts are $15 per person and includes a glass of wine.
The concerts brought an impressive 7,000 people to the East End last winter, and Winterfest organizers are hoping that number will balloon this season. Scroll down for a complete calendar of performances.
