This marks the third consecutive year that the program will activate at the film festival, as the 2025 program is relocating to Lower Main Street with a pop-up takeover of Jackson’s Hideaway Ski Lounge at 900 Main Street.
At the heart of the Sommsation Wine Lounge is the opportunity for film-goers attending the festival to indulge in an intimate and luxurious environment with curated wine tastings offered by Sommsation. Festival-goers have the opportunity to taste a selection of wines available on the Sommsation platform, a reputable marketplace connecting independent wineries and sommeliers who curate access to exceptional, limited-production wines from around the world. On-site, guests will enjoy sommelier-curated wine-flight tastings featuring selections from top independent wine producers, including Three Sticks Wines, Terratorium Wines, Halter Ranch Winery, and Alexana Winery, all paired with a gourmet assortment of meats and cheeses. The Sommsation Wine Lounge will also feature a robust schedule of additional events, including:
• A private “Sommsation Après Ski” style event opening the weekend, inviting VIP media and members who will have an exclusive preview of the Sommsation Wine Lounge, the independent wines, and culinary pairings.
• The Sommsation Wine Lounge’s “The Art of Pairing” evening VIP events at the Lounge including an elevated wine-tasting experience featuring ultra-premium and reserve wines, live chef demonstrations, and luxury pairings.

• “PowerFlix Launch Party”. PowerFlix, led by film industry veterans Robert Schwartzman and Cole Harper, will host the launch of their new tech platform at the lounge, as they provide tools and service add-ons to release films. PowerFlix will be celebrating its release at the Sommsation Wine Lounge, the company who is leading the wine industry with its advanced technology and solutions to small, independent wineries, all while offering centralized distribution solutions alongside additional client services, such as Sommelier-guided support.
• To wrap up the weekend, Sommsation will host a fundraising event where 100% of the proceeds will be donated to select local charities in support of the recent wildfires that have heavily impacted the Los Angeles community. Additional details will be announced.
