32nd CHARITY WINE AUCTION![]()
Thank you!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! We hope your night in Studio 54 was filled with glitter, groove, and good times. With your help we raised over $135,000 in support of the Alberta Children’s Hospital Foundation’s Emerging Adult Mental Health Initiative, the Hotchkiss Brain Institute, and Hospice Calgary’s Children’s Grief Centre.
You brought the sparkle, the style, and the Saturday night fever! Thanks to you, our very own Studio 54 at Willow Park Wines & Spirits was the place to be. The energy, the outfits, the disco ball—it was all magic. With your support, the Charity Wine Auction has now amassed over $5 million for local charities, enriching the lives of countless Calgarians.
Save the Date: Saturday October 17, 2026 for the 33rd Charity Wine Auction - you won’t want to miss what we have planned next!

THIS YEAR'S BENEFICIARIES
WHAT OUR GUESTS ARE SAYING
-
“I’ve watched the evolution of this magnificent event which brings together outstanding wines, food, and winemakers from around the world. The entire evening is a charitable focus and is truly amazing! At the end of the day the Charity Wine Auction is like a fine wine getting better with age and we can’t forget that is has helped save lives with their donations.”
Bill Brooks, Calgary Herald -
“Every year it is like the lights go down and the store is magically transformed… Having attended the Charity Wine Auction since 1996, it’s fun to look back how the event has changes. This gala has grown into THE event of the year that pours great wines, serves amazing food, encourages community spirit, and always has the proper glassware to enjoy the great wines being poured!”
Linda Robinson, President, Pacific Wine & Spirits -
“It’s about having a great time, with great wine, with people who like to give back. In fact, years ago, a Bollinger Bullet was part of the auction and I just had to have it. There was a group of us who were trying to outbid each other, but I was determined and today the Champagne is happy to call my wine cellar home. The auction is a fun competition, this is because all of the items are so special and you would never be able to purchase them anywhere else.”
Lance Hurtubise, President & CEO, Vintage Group
