Urban Wine Walk is a self-guided tasting tour that encourages participants to explore Downtown Phoenix, socialize, experience local bars and restaurants, and sample fabulous wines. With participating locations conveniently located along the light rail corridor stretching from uptown to downtown, this pedestrian-friendly tour is your ticket aboard an urban food and wine expedition.

What you need to know:

Each participating location offers wine samples for $2 or $3, which includes a delicious hors d’oeuvre.

Locations are conveniently located walking, biking or light rail distance from each other.

Wine brings people together! So invite your friends and get ready to meet new ones.

Wear comfortable shoes and bring a sense of adventure.

The first 300 people to begin their journey at Urban Wine Walk’s host location, CityScape Residences, will receive this year’s free commemorative wine glass. Participants can tour the digs and check out the residents-only pool area (beautiful views of downtown included.) While standing in line for a glass, be sure to check in, tag or mention CityScape Residences on Instagram and Facebook for a chance to win a $500 Visa gift card!

For those looking to stay the night in uptown Phoenix after a long day of sampling, check out the Hotel 502 on Camelback next to The Newton — offering a $69 special for Wine Walkers. Please remember to sample responsibly, and we’ll see you May 16!
