06
I can’t make my session anymore. Can I transfer to another time slot?

Yes. As the event reaches its capacity, it can be a little tricky, so please choose your session carefully when making a purchase. We understand that life happens, so if you really need to change the time or day, please email info@sofrenchysochic.com with the session you'd like to switch to, and we'll do our best to accommodate you!

07
Will tickets be available at the door?

This event sells out quickly, so the best way to avoid disappointment is to buy tickets early. Be cautious when buying tickets from others on Facebook, as scammers target Facebook Event Pages to find people looking for tickets to sold-out events. Tixel provides a safe way to purchase resale tickets online and is very user-friendly.

08

Strictly no refund but you can transfer your ticket to a friend or resell on tixel

09
Do I need to print my ticket?

It is not necessary, you can display your ticket on your phone

10
Are children allowed to attend the event?

Yes, our events can be busy, loud, and a bit hectic, so they may not be the best place for young children. The tasting areas can get quite crowded, so maneuvering a stroller might be challenging. We recommend arranging for a babysitter and enjoying a worry-free time. If that's not possible, you can bring your young child along, and they won't need a ticket (17 yrs and younger).

11
Age limit to attend the event

You need to be at least 18 years old to consume alcohol. Please bring a valid form of identification, such as a passport or driver's license, on the day of the event. Children under 18 can attend for free if accompanied by an adult.

This is a wine tasting event

Creating a safe, welcoming, and non-intimidating event environment is our top priority. Any inappropriate behavior, whether due to intoxication or not, that is dangerous to yourself or others is not acceptable. We have a strict zero-tolerance policy, so if we observe any such behavior, we reserve the right to take appropriate action and have you removed from the venue.
