The 14th annual Lighting of the Vines, a charity event benefiting the Bridgehampton Child Care & Recreational Center, will take place at Wölffer Estate Vineyard in Sagaponack on Saturday, December 2, from 6 to 8 p.m.

Enjoy live holiday music, passed hors d’oeuvres, Wölffer wines and an awe-inspiring lighting display illuminating Wölffer’s winter vineyard rows. The evening includes a silent auction of holiday wreaths designed by community artists, designers and business owners. Proceeds of the wreath auction will benefit The Bridgehampton Child Care & Recreational Center, a community organization serving all marginalized East End children and families.

The event is hosted in the Wölffer Tasting Room, on the heated outdoor terrace and the adjacent lawn. Expect to spend most time outdoors, so dress appropriately, bring a jacket, hat and gloves to stay warm.

General admission tickets are $175. A VIP outdoor heated seating area for eight guests is $3,000 and includes early entrance, views directly next to the vines, wine bottles and charcuterie. A VIP terrace table for up to 12 guests is $15,000, and includes early entrance, guaranteed seating, sparkling wines, charcuterie and more. For booking any VIP packages, email Debra at mcsanzo@hopeworksltd.com, 100 percent of proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to BHCCRC. All tickets are nonrefundable. Guests must have a ticket to be admitted.

Wölffer Estate Vineyard is at 138 Sagg Road, Sagaponack. Visit wolffer.com for details.
