Wine Over Water 2025.
Advice for visitors: Bring a photo ID, wear comfy shoes, and plan a safe ride home if you will drink. Wine Over Water is a special wine festival that raises money for Preserve Chattanooga. It will be held at Renaissance Park because the Walnut Street Bridge is being fixed. Save the date shown in the event notes: 10.10.26. The festival is only for people 21 years old and older. There are nonalcoholic wine options, but you must be 21 to buy a ticket. When you arrive, bring your Eventbrite ticket with the QR code on your phone or printed copy and your ID. Tickets are nonrefundable but you can transfer them to someone else if you cannot go. Garden-party attire is the dress tip. The event gives you a nice wine glass to keep, and many wines are picked by wine professionals so you can try new favorites. Top chefs have made food to match the wines, including two special menus by Chef Amanda Clayton of Whitebird and pairings by Chef Kevin Ramquist. Look for charcuterie, pulled pork, and other tasty surprises around the park.
There will be live music and roaming acts to make the night fun. The featured band is Ben van Winkle and The Figment, and there will be performances by the Chattanooga Circus Collective and a fire cabaret show. The main stage show begins in the evening, so check the schedule when you arrive. For parking, Renaissance Park has a lot off Manufacturers Road and there is also parking at Coolidge Park. You can use the ParkMobile app at meters, and CARTA buses and a shuttle have spaces nearby. The event organizers strongly recommend taking a taxi or ride-share like Uber or Lyft if you plan to drink. This festival is a fundraiser, so money raised helps save local history and support preservation programs. Volunteers and sponsors help run the event. If weather forces a change, organizers will set a new date and give ticket info. Most people find the event to be a calm, elegant night with good food, friendly staff, and chances to learn about wine in a simple way. Bring friends, enjoy the lights and music, and please drink responsibly.
