DrinkMaryland Makes a Stop at Olde Towne Plaza

DrinkMaryland, a market-like pop up event, will make a stop at Olde Towne Plaza in Gaithersburg on Friday, September 9, from 4 to 8 p.m. Featuring local Maryland wine, cider, and beer, this open-air market is perfect for a casual Friday night. Learn about the local craft beverage industry from the vintners, brewers, and distillers themselves while sampling their products. Enjoy live music, visit with artisans and crafters, and enjoy food from vendors and local restaurants in the historic commercial center of Gaithersburg.

Unlike traditional wine tasting events, DrinkMaryland is an open marketplace for visitors to explore. Public entry to the event is free; tasting passes for the sampling of wine, cider, mead, beer, and distilled spirits can be purchased for $20 in advance or $25 on-site. To order a sampling pass, visit https://drinkmaryland.org.

Artisans and crafters are still being sought for this Maryland Makers event. For vendor information, please contact [email protected] or call 301-258-6160.
