Vintner, philanthropist and music artist manager Bruce Cohn will put tickets on sale May 4 for the 25th annual B.R. Cohn Charity Events Fall Music Festival, Gala Charity Auction Dinner and the Celebrity Golf Classic.

“Time really flies by, I can’t believe the 25th year is here. It seems only yesterday that we were just doing our first event in 1986,” he said. “It promises to be a memorable weekend. The Doobies Brothers are returning for both days and we have invited most of the past performers to join us, so stay tuned for updates on artists performing. And I’m thrilled to have Chef Guy Fieri with us this year it will add another headliner to the weekend.”
