Spring Wine Walk Presented by Romain Cross Pointe Auto Park is Friday, April 28
Wines exclusively from Oliver Winery, including a preview wine not yet available in stores
The Downtown Evansville Economic Improvement District (EID) is hosting their Spring Wine Walk Presented by Romain Cross Pointe Auto Park on Friday April 28 from 5:30 – 8:30 PM. Registration will take place at 318 Main Street.
In continuing a partnership from 2021 and 2022, wines poured during the event will be exclusively from Oliver Winery in Bloomington, Indiana. Oliver will serve their popular wines, as well as a preview wine that is not on store shelves yet. All wines will be poured outside on Main Street, and attendees can carry their wine into their favorite shops. In addition to Oliver’s award-winning wines, there is shopping, live music from DJ Beamz, Kelsey Georgesen, Loops and Rhythms, chair massages by Be Pampered ($1/minute), poetry readings from nine local poets, and a photo station. The event is for guests 21 years of age and older. Admission is $15 per person and includes two four-ounce tastes of Oliver wine, a commemorative tumbler, and a passport. Ticket prices increase to $25 per person at the event. Many Downtown restaurants will feature special items during the Wine Walk.
Guests will redeem their tickets at two tents on the 200 and 300 Blocks of Main Street. Each ticket is eligible for a four-ounce wine taste. Guests will visit shops on the passport and the Romain sponsor space and receive a stamp at each location. Two individuals will be drawn from the stamped passports to receive prize baskets of Downtown Evansville merchandise and giveaway items from businesses.
“The Wine Walk continues to be a popular attraction. Our attendee numbers have increased eightfold since we started in 2017. Pre-event ticket sales are ahead of all our past seven wine walks, so we encourage guests to buy their tickets now before we sell out. Join us for an evening of shopping, dining, and enjoying all Downtown has to offer,†said Josh Armstrong, president, EID.
Event proceeds will be used to support the EID’s clean and beautification efforts. Visit DowntownEvansville.com/WineWalk or Downtown Evansville Indiana on social media for event details and to purchase tickets.
