By: Lanier Islands "We're really excited to present this event to our 21 & older fans of the Islands," said Missy Burgess, Director of Public Relations & Sponsorships for Lanier Islands. "Our Legacy Cruise Series – which involves a series of wine and scotch & cigar cruises – has been such a hit, that we've simply brought that same concept ashore at LanierWorld and supersized it. The Sunset Cove Beer & Wine Fest will showcase a blend of wines and beers from a variety of local breweries, regional wineries and popular national/international beverage producers. We'll also have great food, hot cider and some awesome bands onstage. And what would a Saturday in the Fall BE without a few fantastic college football matchups? If you've never experienced football on our high-definition Spectacular Screen, you're really missing out. The screen is bigger than most traditional drive-in movie screens with an incredible sound system so you never miss a play. We believe it's the next best thing to being there AND you get the added benefit of sticking your toes in the sand while you watch from the comfort of a lounge chair on the beach. We want everyone to have an amazing time, but we encourage all of our guests to drink responsibly." The football game and entertainment lineup for Sunset Cove Beer & Wine Fest on October 14 is: · University of Georgia Bulldogs vs. University of Missouri Tigers Game · Whispering Gypsies take the Sunset Cove Stage from noon to 4 p.m. · Auburn University Tigers vs. LSU Tigers Game Another benefit of having a Beer & Wine Fest at Lanier Islands is the access to luxury lodgings, overnight accommodation packages and loads of activities to enjoy the following day that range from 18 holes of golf on a lakeside course to exploring the resort via zipline canopy tour or on horseback. Due to the popularity of this event, rooms in the resort's Legacy Lodge are already sold out. However, additional rooms remain at the lakeside Legacy Villas and Legacy LakeHouses – both of which prove ideal for a group.

For those who hurry, the first 250 tickets are just $25/person. Tickets afford guests access to the beach, Spectacular Screen, live entertainment and all beer, wine and cider samples.
