General Questions
Is Wicked Wine Run competitive?
This event isn’t about speed, it’s all about having fun and enjoying some delicious wine along the way. Whether you run, jog, walk, or even twirl, you’ll have a great time on our non-competitive 5k course. And hey, if you’re really into timing yourself, go for it! But don’t worry about being the fastest one out there, because at Wicked Wine Run, the only competition we care about is who has the most creative costume. So come join us, sip some wine, and enjoy a leisurely run. Just remember, you have 90 minutes to complete the course, so hurry back for the post event party!
Are spectators welcome to come out for the fun?
Absolutely! As a spectator at Wicked Wine Run 21+ can purchase wine tasting tickets for $10 online or on-site, which include an over 21 wristband and a an etched Wine wineglass. Wine is available for purchase through the vineyard, so don’t forget your ID! Even if you’re not running, there’s still plenty of fun to be had with food, drinks, and festivities. See you there!
Can I bring my Dog/Turtle/Bird or pet Honey Badger?
We love our animal friends, but for safety reasons, we do not allow any pets at our events, including dogs, turtles, birds, and even honey badgers. Thank you for your understanding!

I REALLY like wine, can I do both distances?
If you’re a wine lover, you’ll be happy to hear that you can participate in both the 1K and 5K events at Wicked Wine Run! And to sweeten the deal, there’s even a discount when you sign up for both races. So go ahead and indulge in your love for wine by running or walking both distances!
What do I need to pick up my packet?
There are two options for packet pick-up. If you opt-in to ship your packet during registration, your goodie bag and race bib mailed to you, which means you’re already checked in. On event day you’ll skip the check-in lines and can grab a bite, drink some wine, play games or head straight to the start line.
If you choose to pick up your packet in person, all you need is your ID, a smile and a positive attitude.
I signed up, but can’t make the race anymore. What are my options?
We understand that life happens and sometimes you may not be able to make it to the event after signing up. Unfortunately, we are not able to offer refunds as the expenses for producing the event are incurred well in advance. However, you do have the option to transfer your registration to a friend or family member, or to another event, up to 15 days before the event. If transferring is not possible, we would still love to see you at packet pick-up to say hi and for you to pick up your event shirt. Please make sure to double-check your calendar before signing up to avoid any issues.
What if it rains?
If the weather is safe, the event will proceed as planned. However, in the event of heavy rain, thunderstorms, or lightning, we will notify you via email and social media channels about any delays or cancellations. Please note that we do not offer refunds due to adverse weather, as stated in the waiver. If the organizers and/or Venue/City Officials determine that the weather or other unforeseeable conditions may pose a potential hazard to participants, volunteers, and staff, they reserve the right to postpone the start time or cancel the event. This decision may be made before or during the event, and there will be no refunds or deferrals offered in the event of a weather cancellation.

RACE DAY QUESTIONS
What time should I show up?
The event schedule is available on each event page, indicating the packet pick up day and time along with other event day schedules. Please refer to your event page for specific details.
Where is the event parking?
For parking information, please check your event page as it varies by venue. Typically, parking is available at the venue or an adjacent property for $20 per vehicle. Follow the parking signage and parking company for our designated no-tow areas. Some venues we will need to park off site and shuttle you to the venue, so please check your event page for specific details.
What should I bring?
Besides your positive attitude and a smile, we suggest bringing your ID, a designated driver, $20 in cash for parking, extra money for wine, food, and merchandise purchases. Don’t forget to dress up in costume if you want to! Additionally, consider bringing a blanket or pop-up chairs for post-race basking. We recommend bringing water, sunscreen, and something to keep your valuables safe while running.
What should I NOT bring?
Thank you for asking! Please note that outside alcohol, food, tables, coolers, tents, and pets are not allowed on the event grounds. We will have wine and food trucks available for you to enjoy!
Can I wear my headphones and listen to my super rad race playlist?
We know it’s cool to listen to music when working out, that’s why we have music along the course to keep you going. But if you have your own jammin’ playlist please only wear one earphone so you can still hear course marshals.
Is the course marked?
Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! We use a mix of course signs and helpful volunteers to guide you through the course.
Is there a lost and found?
Oh no, did you lose something? No worries, we’ve got a lost & found! Anything found on event day will be brought to the merchandise tents. If you don’t pick up your lost item on race day, just shoot us an email at support@wickedwinerun.com to check if it was turned in. However, the runner will be required to pay postage before we mail it back. If you don’t claim it within 15 days, we’ll donate it to Goodwill (someone else’s treasure, right?).
