Festival Napa Valley will present its first-ever Novack Concert for Kids at the historic Uptown Theatre later this month. The event — scheduled for Thursday, April 30 at 10 a.m. at the downtown Napa theater — will be headlined by renowned Taiwanese violinist Ray Chen, who will be accompanied by up-and-coming classical pianist Chelsea Wang.

Festival Napa Valley will return to the Wine Country this summer to celebrate its 20th anniversary season. Running July 4-19, the festival’s lineup features such major names as soprano Renée Fleming, trumpeter and composer Wynton Marsalis, and pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet. In total, more than 200 artists will appear for concerts, dance performances, and special events at various venues throughout the famed Napa Valley.

Does Napa Valley need a quick little vacay around the middle of spring and where would such a trip occur? Look to Huntington Beach for that answer, and the Paséa Hotel & Spa, for a NV-themed pop-up, full of crisp and deep and delightful wines, will soon take root. Well, for a single springful day, that is: You'll want to make your way to Taste of Napa, presented by Festival Napa Valley, on April 12.
