Truckee Wine, Walk & Shop

Sip as you shop at the Downtown Truckee Wine, Walk & Shop. This annual event unites locals, tourists and businesses with food and wine. At more than two dozen businesses, enjoy hors d’oeuvres provided by local eateries and sample wines from regional wineries. You can either walk from venue to venue or take advantage of the free cab rides offered during the event. Or if you’ve been volunteered as the DD, just purchase a designated drivers ticket instead of the standard ticket and enjoy non-alcoholic drinks at the venues. The Downtown Truckee Wine, Walk & Shop counts on an enthusiastic turnout, and residents and visitors can mingle and converse over mini crab cakes and Chardonnay. And it’s not just attendees and businesses that connect but the greater community as well – each year the event’s proceeds go to a charitable organization in the area. Not only will you be eating well, but you'll be helping a great cause too. This Lake Tahoe annual event is usually the first Saturday afternoon in October. Purchase tickets on the event's website or at the Truckee Donner Chamber of Commerce.
