The Downtown Bellingham Partnership will host the annual Holiday Wine Walk event Friday, November 11 from 5:00 – 8:30 PM. Tickets will be released for sale the week of October 10 for this popular downtown celebration. The Holiday Wine Walk draws upwards of 600 people to taste wine and welcome in the holiday shopping season at 15 stores and boutiques in the downtown core.
“We’re excited to bring back Holiday Wine Walk,” Lindsey Payne Johnstone, Program Director for the Downtown Bellingham Partnership, said. “This event is such a fun way to check out unique gift ideas and get some of that shopping done early, while enjoying delicious wine with friends.”
Just like past Wine Walks, attendees will taste a variety of wines from local and regional wineries on a self-guided sipping tour of downtown’s anchors stores and new businesses.
