Set against the backdrop of the historic California State Railroad Museum, it’s not just a whiskey tasting — it’s a full-on ride through Sacramento’s spirit and culture.

And don’t miss the VIP Train Lounge experience sponsored by The Macallan — it’s luxury on rails!
Why It Matters: This festival doesn’t just celebrate whiskey; it supports two incredible local nonprofits: The Pantheon, a leadership collective supporting businesses and nonprofits, and the California State Railroad Museum Foundation (CSRMF), preserving our state’s rich railroad history.
