Brightline Tasting Train Features Perrier Jouet, New Palm Beach County Eats

UPDATE: The Brightline Tasting Train for Dec. 7 has been postponed, we will post the rescheduled date when available.

Take the Brightline train to the 2018 Art Basel this year and avoid the I-95 craziness. There’s a special pass for that (of course, there is), and there’s The Tasting Train with an Art Basel edition, too.

That tasting train is Dec. 7, starting at 7 p.m. from the West Palm Beach station (7:39 p.m. from the Fort Lauderdale station), with Perrier Jouet sampling on the way to Miami. Then at the station, tasting continues along with live music—all included in the tasting ticket: $200 for the train and tasting lounge in Miami; $175 just for the Miami station tasting. The previous tasting trains were sell outs (pictured). You can buy tickets here.
