Annual Truckee Wine Walk – 2023
Today is the day for the downtown Annual Truckee Wine Walk and Shop- 2023 event, Saturday, October 7, 2023!
The Downtown Truckee Wine Walk and Shop event has become a favorite way to end our amazing Noth Lake Tahoe – Truckee area summer season!
If you were lucky enough to attend the Tahoe City Wine Walk back in June 2023, attending the Truckee Wine Walk and Shop event during the first weekend in October is a great way to end the season!
This annual event brings in over 1,000 participants to sip, sample, and enjoy a day of being in downtown Historic Truckee.
Attendees should dress in layers and be prepared to be warm in the sunshine, but it also means that you’ll want a light jacket, or sweater for the shade, or if the wind picks up.
Those that go will enjoy being in historic Downtown Truckee and they will get the chance to sample some great wines, food from local restaurants and caterers, along with a wonderful day of shopping!
This is the 20th year anniversary of the Truckee Wine Walk and Shop event, marking two decades of local fun!
Attendees will receive a commemorative wine glass to sample wine at more than 30+ tasting locations and you’ll also get food tickets, and a program with a map to all participating venues in the downtown Truckee area.
Non-drinkers are welcome too, and you should ask about their designated driver program.
Here are some of the event details:
Downtown Truckee Annual Wine Walk
- When: Saturday, October 7, 2023, Starting at 12 Noon to 4 p.m.
- Where: Downtown Commercial Row in Truckee, California
- Check in: Parking lot just west of the Truckee Train Station Depot – check in begins at 11 a.m.
- Cost: Ticket price at door. Must be paid in CASH on day of event. www.TruckeeWineWalk.com. Must be 21+ Years of age for wine sampling. Don’t forget to bring your ID!
- Designated Driver Tickets are also available.
Transportation: A day of wine sampling can be a lot of fun, but don’t forget to be safe and make sure you have a designated driver, or have arranged for a ride home.
You’ll find a number of safe, free rides to and from the Truckee event on the event website.
So here are few of my wine walking tips to make the most of the your day at the Downtown Truckee Wine Walk:
- Dress in layers, and wear comfortable shoes.
- Eat a good breakfast, and bring along a bottle of water.
- Pace yourself. Sip, don’t guzzle. You’ll have four hours of drinking, eating, and walking ahead of you at an elevation of 6,200+ feet above sea level, so it can take a toll on your body.
- It’s okay to stop for meal if you aren’t finding enough to eat with your food tickets. I am a vegetarian and my sampling options are often limited (that’s my problem, not the events’ so plan ahead).
- If you are in a group, and they won’t slow down for a sit-down meal, call and place a to-go order at one of the local restaurants that are open for lunch.
Trust me on this one, your friends will be impressed on how well organized your are, and they will wonder why they also didn’t place a food order to go too!
It’s a win-win for everyone. You’ll have something to eat, and won’t lose any wine tasting time in the process!
- Enjoy the moment and experience.
- Most event goers do the wine walk with friends, so this is a time to celebrate the changing of seasons, and a time to just be together. Be silly, have fun, find something outrageous to buy, and take selfies!
- Make memories!
It’s hard to believe that October is here and that our holidays and winter season is almost here, so enjoy the end of the season by being at the Truckee Wine Walk and Shop!
