Apple Fest
Celebrate the beginning of fall with two relaxed, flavor-filled days at Wildside Winery as we honor one of Kentucky’s favorite harvests — apples.

Join us Saturday and Sunday, August 22–23, 2026 for a family-friendly weekend of orchard air, fresh apples, warm desserts, chilled wine slushees, and vineyard views.

 
Event Highlights
Complimentary You-Pick Apples
Stroll through our apple orchard and pick your own crisp, juicy apples straight from the trees while supplies last. A simple, nostalgic fall experience for all ages.

Apple Pie Wine Slushees
Sweet, spiced, and refreshingly chilled, these seasonal slushees blend apple pie flavor with Wildside wine.

Apple Cobbler
Warm, buttery apple cobbler will be available throughout the weekend, made with fresh apples and served hot.

Wildside Wines
Enjoy Wildside’s full wine menu, crafted on site and designed to pair beautifully with all things apple.

Live Music All Weekend
The music lineup will be announced soon. Expect relaxed, vineyard-friendly performances designed to complement a laid-back fall atmosphere.
