The Snohomish Wine Walk is entering its 15th year, and volunteers are essential to delivering the smooth, welcoming experience that keeps visitors returning season after season. By signing up, you’re directly supporting our downtown businesses, helping guests feel taken care of, and ensuring the event runs safely and efficiently from start to finish.
As a thank you, all volunteers will receive a complimentary bottle of wine! Volunteers for this event must be 21+.
