he Downtown Evansville Improvement District (DEID) is hosting a Spooky Wine Walk Presented by Romain Cross Pointe on Friday, October 3 from 5:30 – 8:30 PM. Registration will take place at 405 Main Street, near the corner of Fourth and Main Streets.
The drink options for this event have expanded. Guests can enjoy pours from Hymn & Herd Winery, TWO-EE’s Winery, Whyte Horse Winery, Shake Up Cocktails, and River City Coffee + Goods. The full drink menu will be announced later this week. All drinks will be poured outside on Main Street, and attendees can carry their wine, mocktails, and cocktails into their favorite shops.
In addition to the expanded drink options, there will be shopping, live music, henna tattoos, fire performances, photo stations, and $5 tarot readings. Guests can also enjoy complimentary snacks, seating, and custom guest portraits at the F.C. Tucker Emge Hospitality tent on the 300 Block of Main Street. Costumes are encouraged.
Admission is $15 per person and includes two four-ounce pours, a commemorative tumbler, and a passport. Ticket prices increase to $25 per person at the event. Extra drink tickets will be available for $5 each near the registration area (cash only). Guests 21 and older can purchase alcoholic beverages in official Downtown Evansville DORA branded cups and enjoy them as they explore Downtown Evansville. Mocktails, cocktails, and DORA beverages are available for purchase without event admission. Alcohol is served to ages 21+, but all are welcome to attend.
Guests will redeem their tickets at tents on the 300, 400, and 500 blocks of Main Street. Each ticket is redeemed for a four-ounce pour. Downtown stores and restaurants will be open for customers. BlueBird Hot Chicken will also be serving food along Main Street. Guests will visit shops on the passport and receive a stamp at each location. One individual will be drawn from the stamped passports to receive a basket of Evansville merchandise and gift cards to Downtown restaurants.
Romain Cross Pointe is the presenting sponsor and will judge a costume contest at 7 PM at their booth on the 400 Block of Main Street. Winners for best costume will receive a prize.

Ticket sales are ahead of last fall, so we strongly encourage guests to buy their tickets now before we sell out.” said Adam Trinkel, executive director, DEID.
