Cold temperatures and dozens of bottles of wine can only mean one thing…it’s time for the Medina Business Association’s Wine About Winter event! 

As the popularity for this event remains high, we’ve been told that tickets sold out – again.  That means between VIP and regular admission, 850 people will hit the streets of Medina this afternoon and support all the incredible small businesses.

We always brag that our town really knows how to put on an event;  business owners all step up, local products are showcased, and for many this will be the first time they’ve visited some of the boutiques and other shops in Medina’s Business District.  And we’re ecstatic to be part of the 10th anniversary this year! 

Here’s what you need to know:
If you have a VIP ticket, the event runs from 2pm-7pm, while regular admittance starts an hour later, at 3pm.
Help everyone out by finishing your wine before you leave the establishment it was poured. This will go along way as businesses are trying to offer the best experience to hundreds of guests.
As always, help us promote Medina, NY by using hashtags on Instagram. Consider #MedinaNY and #WineAboutWinter to share your favorite moments.
