Sip, Shop & Stroll

A Special Edition Taste of Downtown Event

To celebrate the 15th anniversary of Taste of Downtown, the Downtown Long Beach Alliance has cooked up something extra special to kick off the series! Enjoy a fabulous day of tasting bites and sips from local businesses while shopping and strolling around the East Village retailers.

Discover unique treasures from local vendors, sip on delicious drinks, taste bites from your favorite DTLB restaurants, and enjoy a leisurely stroll. Whether you're treating mom to a special day for Mother's Day, looking for a new outfit, a special gift, or just want to soak up the vibrant atmosphere, this event has something for everyone. Don't miss out on this perfect opportunity to support small businesses and have a great time with friends and family!

HOW IT WORKS
Retailers in the East Village (Ocean Blvd. - 4th Street, Elm Ave. - Linden Ave.) will be paired with a food & beverage business. Enjoy your bites and sips inside the shop while you browse! The neighborhood will be filled with live music and fun activities.

Instead of purchasing individual tasting tickets like at traditional Taste of Downtown, one ticket gets you an all-access wristband and souvenir cup that lets you taste and sip all the offerings! Upgrade to VIP and you'll receive access to special tastings, shows, and activities.

Kids 10 and under are free. Ages 11-20 (or those not drinking alcohol) are $30. Ages 21+ are $40 presale, $50 general admission. Add on VIP for $25.
