BECOME A SPONSOR

Since its inception in 2006, Santé South has grown into the largest wine and culinary extravaganza in the state of Mississippi. A destination event, it affords a rare opportunity for guests to speak directly with boutique winemakers and features more than 120 exceptional wines from around the world as well as fine food samplings from more than 20 top Mississippi restaurants. To date, Santé South has raised more than $1 million to advance the delivery of Alzheimer’s care and support services, educational programming, and research in our state. This year’s event will support The MIND Center’s capital campaign to establish the Fred R. Adams, Jr. MIND Center and Geriatric Clinic.

The 2024 Santé South Wine & Food Festival will roll out the red carpet for its sponsors on May 3, 2025 at the VIP Sponsor Preview Tasting beginning at 6:30 p.m. Sponsors will be treated to exclusive wines, premier culinary food pairings, live entertainment, and much, much more. Event sponsors will interact privately with vintners and sample boutique wines before the event opens to the general public at 7:30 p.m.

In addition, sponsors at the Cru level and above will receive general admission tickets to the public wine festival to provide to clients or employees. Sponsors of the festival will receive elevated exposure as the 2024 event is expected to draw approximately 600 attendees. For more information, contact The MIND Center at 601-815-4237 or mindcenter@umc.edu.
