YORKTON – The Yorkton Lions 19th Wine Spirits and Beer Tasting Festival took place on the evening of September 17 at the Flexihall in the Gallagher Centre.

This was the first Wine Spirits and Beer Tasting Festival to be held since 2019 due to the ongoing nature of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"There was 23 vendors, 28 tables, plus five restaurants," said Don Reed, Chairman of the festival and acting President of the Yorkton Lions Club.

Reed said the organization estimates 700-800 people attended the event.

"Big thank you to everybody," said Reed, adding, "thank you to the vendors, thank you to the people that attended moreso than anything else, and thank you to the sponsors."
