The story
About this festival.
Amherst Wine Walk: Sip Around the World is the Tomorrow River Business Association's annual Friday-evening wine walk through downtown Amherst, Wisconsin, with up to 20 businesses each pouring a wine from a different region of the world alongside a paired bite. The seventh annual edition was Friday, June 26, 2026, with check-in at the Jensen Community Center from 4 to 5:30 PM for a map, wristband and commemorative glass.
Tickets are limited to 300, so the walk sells out. Amherst is a village of about 1,000 people in Portage County, 15 minutes east of Stevens Point off US-10, and the walk doubles as the business association's showcase of the downtown. Pricing is on the ticket page.
