Event Details

Circle September 6, 2025, on your calendar—downtown Larkspur is hosting its 13th annual wine celebration. It’s a mix of wine tasting and community spirit, set in one of Marin’s most charming spots.

Location and Time

The stroll happens along Magnolia Avenue in downtown Larkspur. Participating businesses open up to wine lovers from early evening until closing time.

The tree-lined street feels just right for this kind of gathering.

Tickets and Pricing

General admission pre-sale tickets are $71.21 with tax, available until September 5th. Each ticket gets you:

  • Commemorative wine glass
  • Unlimited tastings at participating wineries
  • Complimentary food samples from local merchants
  • Day-of tickets usually cost more, so buying ahead is the way to go. Anyone can attend, but you’ll need to be 21+ with valid ID to taste wine.

    What to Expect

    The Wine Stroll has a relaxed vibe. You can wander at your own pace, try new wines, and maybe even rediscover a favorite.

    Featured Wineries

    You’ll find mostly local and regional wineries from Sonoma, Napa, and some smaller Marin producers. In past years, over 20 vintners poured everything from crisp Sauvignon Blancs to layered Pinot Noirs.

    Many winemakers show up in person and love to chat about their process or just geek out about grapes. It’s a nice chance to ask questions or just listen in.

    Food Offerings

    Larkspur restaurants put together small bites meant to complement the wines. Past menus included artisanal cheeses, charcuterie, olive tapenade, and a few seasonal treats.

    The food lets you cleanse your palate between tastings and see how different flavors work with different wines.

    Making the Most of Your Visit

    There’s more to the Wine Stroll than just tasting. You get a glimpse of Larkspur’s community and culture in an easygoing setting.

    Transportation Tips

    Parking downtown is pretty limited, so it’s smart to look at other ways to get there. You could use:

  • Rideshare apps like Uber or Lyft
  • Golden Gate Transit buses
  • Larkspur Ferry from San Francisco
  • Or just line up a designated driver
  • Some folks from places like Mill Valley or San Rafael put together group rides to make the evening smoother and safer. Not a bad idea, honestly.

    Beyond Wine

    Wine usually grabs the spotlight, but honestly, there’s more going on. Live music pops up along Magnolia Avenue, with local musicians setting the mood.

    Shops stay open later than usual, sometimes tossing in deals just for folks wandering the stroll. The whole thing feels like a festival, and it’s hard not to notice Larkspur’s small-town charm shining through.

    The Larkspur Wine Stroll started as a modest local get-together. Now, it’s one of central Marin’s standout food and wine events.
