Napa Valley has been having a hard time of it. After wildfires spread viciously through California last month, many of the region’s vineyards have been left devastated as a result.

Perched on a hill in Napa Valley is a little vineyard that is hoping to turn things around for the region as it hosts this year’s Live in the Vineyard — a music festival meets wine tasting event.

Partnering with charity Blue Note Napa, the event will dedicate one night to a special fire relief benefit concert. This event will be open to the public and takes place on Friday, November 3 at 6:30pm in Margrit Mondavi Theatre’s Jam Cellars Ballroom.

All the proceeds will go to the Redwood Credit Union’s North Bay Fire Relief Fund.

Hach Jacobs, the organiser of the event, said.

“The residents and business owners have become our family so with LITV hot on the heels of all this devastation we knew we had to show up for them and help give back. Immediately all of these artists wanted to help out. I also think people’s sincere excitement to get to Napa to help those so affected by buying their wine and spreading the word of how strong a community they are, is something really special.”
