DOWNTOWN NHV presents New Haven's premier shopping, wine and food crawl - Flights of Fancy! We invite Connecticut's fashion-forward folk, foodies and amateur sommeliers to kick off the holiday shopping season in Downtown New Haven with shopping discounts, food tasting, and of course WINE! Enjoy 20 sipping, tasting and shopping stops, souvenir wine glasses and event bags, exclusive shopping discounts and promotions, raffle prizes, and more. Explore neighborhoods of downtown New Haven while you shop, sip & taste at the city’s independently-owned businesses!
Date: Thursday, July 10, 2025
Crawl time: 4:30-8:30PM
Registration location: Omni New Haven Hotel (155 Temple Street)
Registration available: 4:30-7:00PM
(Choose a 4:30 or 5:30 registration time slot with your ticket purchase)
At Registration, Flights of Fancy guests will receive their signature souvenir tasting glass (you cannot crawl without it!), swag bags, required 21+ wristband after ID check, and first wine & food tastings!
For those looking to bite & shop without the wine tastings, we offer "Hold the Wine" tickets! Attend flights at a discount. (Hold the Wine tickets include a swag bag, but not a branded Flights wine glass or access to wine tastings.)
The event is PRE-TICKETED. All guests are required to purchase a ticket to participate in this event. This event is 21+ and ID's will be checked at registration. Please plan to bring a valid form of ID with you. Tickets are not eligible for refund unless a full event cancellation takes place.
