Seattle Wine and
Food Experience adds POP!
Bubbles & Seafood to
kickoff festivities
SEATTLE – December
17, 2014 – The city’s premier
“tasting” event, the Seattle Wine and Food
Experience
(SWFE), returns for a
seventh year, Sunday, February 22, 2015 (12-‐5
pm VIP, 1-‐5 pm General Admission) at the Seattle Center Exhibition
Hall. New to this year’s SWFE is
a Saturday night kickoff
event hosted by Seattle magazine.
POP! Bubbles & Seafood will feature the Pacific Northwest's bounty of seafood from local fish and shellfish providers and a dozen chefs paired with Champagne, sparkling wine, cider and beer. Get the most out
of this “tasting” weekend and attend both events with the SWFE BIG ticket
package, a $125 value.
“We are excited to expand
the weekend with the addition of POP! Bubbles &
Seafood and bring a high caliber of restaurants together to highlight the abundance of great
regional seafood.” Said Jamie Peha, owner of Peha Promotions and producer of SWFE. “The POP!
event will be housed in a deluxe tent, equipped with chandeliers and heating, adjacent to the
Seattle Center Exhibition Hall. The tent is
duo-‐ purpose and will serve
as an additional VIP lounge area
on Sunday during the main
event.”
SWFE is the largest
event in the area that
offers a wide range of food and
beverage from the West Coast and beyond. “What really sets SWFE
apart from other food and wine event are the carefully crafted experiences within
the event,” said Peha.
