That’s where we come in. Below you’ll find the full 2026 lineup, show times, ticket info, and parking — plus how to turn the evening into a seamless, chauffeured experience with a private Long Island wine tour that gets your whole group there and home safely.

What Time Does Jazz in the Vines Start?
Doors open at 6:00 PM and the show runs from 7:00 to 9:00 PM. Each artist plays a 90-minute set followed by a roughly 30-minute meet-and-greet, where performers often sign merchandise and chat with guests. Plan to arrive early to settle in, grab a glass, and find your seat before the music starts.
Because doors are at 6:00 PM and the North Fork is a long drive from the city, a chauffeured ride lets you leave on your schedule, skip the post-show parking-lot crawl, and relax the entire way home.
Where Is Jazz in the Vines and Is There Parking?
Jazz in the Vines is held at Jamesport Vineyards, 1216 Main Road (Route 25), Jamesport, NY 11947, on the winery’s back lawn under a large open-sided tent. There is ample free on-site parking. Shows go on rain or shine, since the tent is open on all four sides with views across the vineyard.
Jamesport sits right in the heart of the North Fork near Riverhead — the same wine country we tour every weekend. Our chauffeurs know these roads, so drop-off and pickup at the venue are smooth even when the lot is full. Explore our Riverhead & Jamesport wine tours to see the area.
Jazz in the Vines Tickets: Prices & What’s Included

In past seasons prices have ranged from roughly $39 to $62 depending on the show and seat location — check the official ticket page for current 2026 pricing, since popular shows like Peter White sell out.

- Tickets are typically non-refundable but transferable to someone else if your plans change.
Why Book a Private Wine Tour Limo to Jazz in the Vines
Serving Long Island since 1998, we’ve driven thousands of guests to North Fork wineries and events — and a wine-and-jazz night is exactly the kind of evening that’s better chauffeured. Here’s why our guests hand us the keys:
- Everyone drinks, nobody drives. Wine flows all night under the tent — no designated driver missing out, and no risky late drive home.
- No parking-lot crawl. We drop you at the entrance and collect you after the meet-and-greet while everyone else waits to exit.
- Licensed, insured, professional chauffeurs. A reliable ride that shows up — not a rideshare gamble on patchy North Fork cell service.
- Local route knowledge. We know the fastest way to Jamesport from the city, Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau and western Suffolk — and the quiet way out after the show.
- Make it a celebration. Birthdays, anniversaries and group nights feel special when you travel together in a limo or party bus.
Make a Day of It: Pair the Concert With a Wine Tour
The show starts at 7:00 PM, which leaves the whole afternoon free — so the smartest move is to turn concert night into a full North Fork day. We’ll pick you up early, visit two or three wineries for tastings, stop for a bite, and have you at Jamesport relaxed and ready when doors open. Browse our curated North Fork wine tour packages or design your own route.
Couples celebrating a special night should look at our wine tour for couples experiences. Bigger group? Our wine tour fleet includes sedans, stretch limousines and party buses so everyone rides together. Planning a midweek tasting before a weekend show? Ask about our 6-hours-get-1-free offer (Monday–Thursday).
Pickup Areas: NYC, Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau & Suffolk
We provide door-to-door service to Jazz in the Vines from across the region. The North Fork is about 2.5 hours from Manhattan, so a chauffeured ride turns a long haul into part of the fun. Popular pickup options include our wine tour limo from NYC, wine tours from Brooklyn, wine tours from Queens, and wine tours from Nassau County.
