SEAGLASS | A Fort Lauderdale Rosé Experience, the eagerly awaited annual event, is now offering tickets for its return to Fort Lauderdale Beach’s sandy shores from January 26-28, 2024. A trio of days filled with immersive experiences, SEAGLASS showcases over 30 rosé variations from the world’s premier wine regions. The grand display features wine, spirits, craft beer, cuisine, and culinary star appearances. It’s all brilliantly harmonized with live rhythms and unique musical acts by The Collektives, Gabriel Key, Majesty of Rock, and DJ Gio Elia, all under the Atlantic Ocean’s scenic view. This year, SEAGLASS persists in backing cancer studies and treatments throughout South Florida. The weekend event’s proceeds are set to aid the Pink Angels Memorial Foundation.

Beyond the philanthropic component, all those involved in SEAGLASS, including organizers and sponsors, are devoted to preserving the ocean and backing environmental clean-up efforts. They achieve this by utilizing eco-friendly products to minimize the effect on the beach’s ecosystem – a crucial issue for new SEAGLASS Rosé Experience collaborator and builder, Steve Hudson, the Chairman and CEO of Hudson Capital Group.

“Fort Lauderdale Beach holds a unique place in my heart, and the Seaglass crew understands the significance of maintaining its splendor for future generations,” states Steve Hudson. “As someone who values conservation, I take great pride in being associated with an event that prioritizes environmental awareness.”

In 2020, the fourth edition of this yearly event was inaugurated and has since seen an expansion in scale. Now, it is set to occupy a larger venue on the Fort Lauderdale beach, just opposite Bahia Mar Fort Lauderdale. The roster includes a variety of restaurants and distinguished chefs such as Paula DaSilva from Ritz-Carlton Fort Lauderdale, Anthony Vitolo from Vitolo Italian, Ricardo Flores from Carlos and Pepe’s, Jake Abbott & Giovanni Rocchio from Val + Tino, Taek Lee from Takato, and Kelly O’Hara who is the Corporate Executive Chef of SFL Hospitality Group’s YÔT Bar & Kitchen and Rio’s Tequila Bar. More participants will be revealed as the date for SEAGLASS draws near.

Carlos Suarez, the founder of SEAGLASS, thinks that rosé is more than just another type of wine; it’s a lifestyle. He believes that SEAGLASS embodies all the best aspects of Fort Lauderdale. “The coastal surroundings, vibrant cultural milieu, and constant ocean breeze make the beaches of Fort Lauderdale an ideal backdrop for this immersive rosé haven,” he says.
