6-9 ~ Gateway to Big Sur presented by Hyatt Carmel Highlands

Last year’s Gateway to Big Sur, at the majestic and iconic Hyatt Carmel highlands was truly epic, and the bar was raised substantially! We are so delighted to work closely again with our friends on manifesting an evening that is reminiscent of a superlative event that used to take place there a number of years ago!

As we line up our participating chefs and wineries, we will add more details, but get ready for an unforgettable soirée!
