Double the Fun This Saturday: Wine, Friends, and Live Music Await!

Saturday, August 9th is shaping up to be the perfect day to get out in Lemont Downtown. Whether you're in the mood for a sophisticated wine walk with your closest friends or want to spend the day enjoying live music and craft beer, we've got you covered with two amazing happenings that are sure to make your weekend memorable.

Vino Vacay Wine Walk

Start your Saturday afternoon in style with Mabel's Market's Vino Vacay, a beach vacation-themed wine walk that promises to transport you to your happy place from 1-4PM. This isn't just any ordinary wine tasting – it's a carefully curated experience that combines great wine, shopping, and pure fun with your favorite people.

Here's what makes this event special:

Check-in at the beautiful courtyard at Aster Gardens, where you'll receive your wine-themed tote bag (yes, it's included with your ticket!). From there, you'll embark on a delightful journey through eight unique shops, each offering 3oz tastings of sparkling wines and other seasonal selections handpicked by BTB Wines.

But the wine is just the beginning. At Hive Fusion Fitness, you can create your own custom lip gloss at their special pop-up bar – perfect for those tropical-themed photo ops you'll definitely want to capture. And speaking of pampering, don't miss the DIY botanical bath salt bar at Aster Gardens, where you can craft your own relaxing spa essentials.

As you stroll from shop to shop with your girlfriends, you'll also enjoy exclusive deals and discounts at participating stores. It's the perfect opportunity to preview their late-summer and pre-fall collections while sipping on delicious wine and soaking up those vacation vibes.
