Nirvana Update!

The countdown clock is ticking and celebrities are making their way to Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa for Thursday’s Nirvana festival kick-off.

New on the Nirvana scene are The Bella Twins of WWE fame, stars of E! Network’s Total Bellas, and the inspiration behind Belle Radici wines. Nikki and Brie are slated to co-host Saturday afternoon’s Rosé Parté along with celebrity chef Todd English. Rosé Parté pairs tastings of unique rosé wines from around with entertainment by Urban Electra, diamonds by Addison Taylor, a caviar bar, and treats by Arizona’s top pastry chefs. Tickets are $135 per person. Saturday, April 22, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

And, Kurt Russell has joined the all-star cast that will transform Sanctuary on Camelback Mountain Resort & Spa into a food-lovers’ paradise April 19-22. The Hollywood star and Santa Ynez Valley vintner will bring his award-winning Gogi Wines to town Saturday, April 21, for an intimate wine dinner, Master of Taste C. An all-star lineup of chefs, including Alex Stratta, Bradford Thompson, Ana Graza, Francois DeMelogue and Sanctuary’s own Beau McMillan, will prepare dishes inspired by Russell’s legendary films.

Food Network personality Guy Fieri is now part of Thursday’s Bourbon Street Blues and Friday’s Flutes & Coops festivities. A limited number of tickets remain available for last-minute planners.
