Reds of Christmas 2022 - Sold Out!
Nov 25, 2022
5:00pm to 8:30pm CST
Update: Thank you for your interest, however, this event has been sold out. Here is a Google Map of the businesses participating on the day of the event, so even if you can't grab drinks, you sure can take advantage of the long shopping hours at each location!!
Jingle and mingle in Monticello this holiday season! There’s no better way to kick things off than with Reds of Christmas, a wine walk and shop event in our historic downtown. Ticketed guests check in and receive a commemorative tasting glass to pop in and out from spot to spot for red wine sampling and shopping.
Tickets are $25 and are available online only. Ticket sales will close one week prior to the event, or upon sell-out, whichever comes first. A final map of participating shops will be provided at the event.
Special thanks to our sponsor First State Bank of Monticello for their support of this event!! We also want to thank Bespoke Gift Company for their partnership with Monticello Main Street for this event!

🍦 It's National Ice Cream Day... and we have an important question...
How do you ice cream? 🤔
🍨 Team gelato from The Main Scoop Ice Cream ?
🎂 Team ice cream cake from Dairy Queen ?
🍦 Team classic soft serve cone from McDonald's ?
No wrong answers...unless you say you don't like ice cream. (We're pretty sure that's illegal on National Ice Cream Day. 😉)
The best part? Downtown Monticello has options to satisfy every sweet tooth.
If you've spent any time downtown, you've probably crossed paths with Shelly Crawford-Stock...or she's crossed something off her to-do list while you weren't looking.
Meet the Executive Director of Monticello Main Street!
Shelly is a proud Monticello native who knows downtown from just about every angle. She grew up here, owned a downtown business for many years, and now spends her days helping our downtown district thrive.
Since stepping into the Executive Director role in 2020, she's been the person behind countless events, projects, meetings, grant applications, community partnerships, and probably a few last-minute miracles involving solving power supply issues for musicians.
Fun fact: Shelly is the 8th Executive Director in Monticello Main Street's 30-year history. That's a lot of big shoes to fill—but thankfully, she's got comfortable ones.
It started because Monticello wanted downtown to thrive...
30 years later, we think we're doing a pretty good job... 😉
Our partners make the downtown a better place- thanks to First State Bank and Trust for their continued partnership!
