Once again, Shop, Wine, and Dine will take place over 10 days. Here's a brief overview of the event:

Shop, Wine, and Dine is like our own private summerlicious (but without the ridiculous fees) that also includes promotions from retailers and service providers.

Shop, Wine, and Dine will take place from Thursday June 13th to Sunday June 23rd

Any combination of a prix-fixe menu, special menu, provide event sponsorship (cash or voucher), or a workshop

Any combination of special discounts, Sidewalk Sale, Buy-one, get-one at X price, any sort of promotion, running a workshop, or provide event sponsorship (cash or voucher)

Any type of workshop, special discounts, Buy-one, get one at X price, any sort of promotion, or provide event sponsorship (cash or voucher)

 

Workshops are a great way to make a lasting connection with potential customers and providing value beyond the typical exchange of goods or services. If there's something you're good at that you can impart to a small group of people in 30-90 minutes, then you have what it takes. Workshops can be held at your place of business, or, if needed, elsewhere in the BIA. The BIA can help manage the sign-up process and if needed, finding a location. They may be free or paid, and you can offer it once, or a few times during Shop, Wine, and Dine. Further, a workshop topic does NOT need to be related to your business.

 

 

The MPV BIA will:

• Secure a blanket sidewalk sale permit, so you're welcome to put merchandise out in front of your business
• Promote the event by way of in-store posters, and online marketing
  
• Provide musical accompaniment on a few days during the event
• Assist with organizing of workshops
