The Downtown Issaquah Wine & ArtWalk is back for 2023! Grab some friends and embark on a wine adventure of Issaquah’s Historically Hip downtown and Olde Town galleries, boutiques, and businesses. Proceeds benefit the Downtown Issaquah Association.
Meet winemakers from some of Washington’s finest wine producers. Sip, stroll, and shop around the northwest’s funky Olde Town destinations. This is one of the Downtown Issaquah’s most anticipated events, so purchase your tickets early ($35 for 10 tasting tokens) and get a discount verses the day-of price ($45). Wine tasters must be 21 or older.
VIP registration option! New for 2023! This year features a new VIP (limited to 50) experience that includes an early bird private reception with the owner of Capri Cellars, exclusive tastings at the wine education center, a souvenir glass, and a vintner encounter ($75). VIP check-in at Capri Cellars for pre-sold tickets only at 5 pm before the regular Wine Walk portion.
The event is free for those who don’t drink the wine, but do want to enjoy fine art, crafts, live music, dance, and performance art. You can have a date night, hang out with friends, meet new people, dine in the downtown restaurants, engage with winemakers and artists, or just sit back and relax. There’s something for everyone to have fun on a Friday night.
General Wine & ArtWalk check-in (5:30pm) at the Historic Shell Station, 232 Front Street N. (Tastings 6-9pm). This event involves some walking and standing outdoors, so plan and dress accordingly. Bring your own glass, souvenir glasses will be available for purchase. Bottled wine will also be available to purchase.
The mission of the Downtown Issaquah Association is to cultivate a thriving Olde Town that builds community and celebrates our charm.
