Live music, outdoor movies, themed dinners, and other special events make the vineyards of Clark County one of the first places visitors should look for a flavorful swirl of local culture. Whether you make it a girls’ night out or a romantic evening getaway, there’s not a day that you can’t find fun amidst the vines, and action that goes beyond the tasting rooms.

Celebrating the ongoing restoration work of the historic Heisen Barn, this bash features live music, food, kid-friendly games and crafts, local vendors, and, of course, wine tasting.

Heisen House also hosts a Crush Fest, Sunflower Festival, Lavender Festival, and Sunday Live Music Jams throughout the summer.
