ANNOUNCEMENT – April 19, 2024: The Downtown Evansville Economic Improvement District (EID) is hosting their Spring Wine Walk Presented by Romain Cross Pointe on Friday April 26 from 5:30 – 8:30 PM. Registration will take place on the 200 Block of Main Street in front of Zuki Downtown (222 Main Street).
In continuing a partnership since 2021, wines poured during the event will be exclusively from Oliver Winery in Bloomington, Indiana. Oliver will serve eight of their popular wines (Blossom Drop, Cosmoberry, Dry Red Blend, Key Lime Pie, Melon Mint Moscato, Peach Pie, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc). 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, Georgia Funkadelic, Logan Dyer, and Korey Miles, custom typewriter poems from Poetry on the Spot, and a photo station. New for 2024, a hospitality tent presented by F.C. Tucker Emge REALTORS® will provide complimentary 5-minute chair massages, snacks, and photo points for event attendees. 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. Multiple individuals will be drawn from the stamped passports to receive prize baskets of Downtown Evansville merchandise and giveaway items from businesses.
“We are excited to elevate the Wine Walk experience with a new hospitality area featuring complimentary chair massages and snacks. Buy your tickets in advance and save $10. Join us for an evening of shopping, dining, and enjoying all Downtown has to offer,” said Adam Trinkel, executive director, of EID.
