Delectable fish & sushi available at the 2025 Pechanga Sushi & Sake Festival – May 3<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

TEMECULA<\/strong>, Calif. (April 25, 2025) \u2013 Festival season stays on a roll this spring at Pechanga Resort Casino. The 5th<\/sup> annual Pechanga Sushi & Sake Festival serves up the freshest catches and smooth sake inside the Summit Events Center Saturday, May 3. The popular one-day event includes an afternoon filled with premium Japanese sake, house-made sushi by master Pechanga chefs, a silent auction and live music. Tickets are on sale and may be purchased at the Pechanga Box Office, by calling (877) 711-2946 or online at Pechanga.com<\/a>. Proceeds from the event benefit Habitat for Humanity Inland Valley.<\/p>\n

Ticket levels available:<\/strong>
\n\u2022 VIP – $160 and includes early entry at 11 a.m., sampling delectable sushi and several dessert items, more than 40 varieties of sake, eight types of beer and talk with sake makers, chefs and bid on silent auction items before general admission attendees.<\/p>\n

\u2022 General Admission – $120 and includes entry at 1 p.m., sampling delectable sushi and several dessert items, more than 40 varieties of sake, eight types of beer, sampling the freshest sushi prepared by master Pechanga chefs, live music and bidding on silent auction items.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Designated Driver tickets are available at both entry times and allow guests to sample the freshest sushi prepared by master Pechanga chefs, enjoy dessert items, plus live music and bidding on silent auction items.

Tasty sake available at the 2025 Pechanga Sushi & Sake Festival – May 3<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

With one ticket, guests can taste more than 40 premium sakes (daiginjo, ginjo, junmai and sparkling) including many award-winning brands and styles from all over Japan and around the world. Pechanga chefs get rolled up in the festival as they prepare thousands of fresh sushi pieces to pair with the sake selections. A traditional Japanese Taiko drummer, a Japanese guitarist and a “Koto” – Japanese harpist – will set the mood of the festival\u2019s musical interludes for the festival. A silent auction also features sought after gifts such as art, vacation packages and more. Andre Pinto, Pechanga Executive Chef, and Charles Adkins, Chef de Cuisine of Umi Sushi & Oyster Bar, will be on hand to meet with guests, present them with fresh, made-on-site sushi, and share their expert suggestions for matching sushi with sake.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere have been other sushi festivals around Southern California, but none that have had the staying power that Pechanga\u2019s Sushi & Sake Festival has,\u201d said Andre Pinto, Pechanga Executive Chef \u201cThe fact our guests can enjoy amazing sushi, sake, have a great time and help charity while they\u2019re doing that, it makes everyone feel great about the whole event.\u201d<\/p>\n

The festival\u2019s idea sprang from the popularity of beer and sake within Southern California, as well as the continued rise of sushi as a mainstay of sought-after fare in America. The 2nd<\/sup> place win for Pechanga\u2019s Umi Sushi & Oyster Bar in USA Today\u2019s Best Casino Restaurant readers\u2019 poll in 2018 also helped cement the festival\u2019s viability at the Temecula resort\/casino.<\/p>\n

Proceeds support Habitat For Humanity Inland Valley\u2019s programs that provide housing to deserving individuals and families, and home repairs to senior citizens and those no longer able to do such work themselves.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
