Downtown Grants Pass is preparing for an afternoon of craft beer, food and activity across 25 locations as the 2026 Tap Walk returns Saturday, October 10, bringing one of the community’s established tasting events back to the heart of the city.
From 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., participants will move through downtown on a designated walking route connecting breweries, food vendors and participating establishments. This year’s Tap Walk has expanded to 25 locations, including several new stops joining the event for 2026.
Rather than gathering at a single venue, the Tap Walk will unfold throughout downtown. Participants will travel from stop to stop with an event map, receiving one tasting at each participating location while restaurants and food vendors serve selections along the route.
The afternoon will also include several amenities beyond the tastings. Each ticket includes a commemorative event pint glass courtesy of Nicebadge, an insulated reusable shopping tote courtesy of Rita’s and bottled water courtesy of People’s Bank.
Visit Grants Pass and Main Street Grants Pass will provide a complimentary selfie booth during the event, while Growler Guys Tap House will provide free Wildlife Images trolley stops, adding another way for participants to travel between portions of the downtown route.
The Tap Walk is limited to adults 21 and older. Advance tickets are $50, while tickets purchased on the day of the event will cost $55 if admission remains available.
Tickets are currently available through the Chamber of Commerce website and may also be purchased in person at the Chamber office, 1995 NW Vine Street in Grants Pass.
By Saturday afternoon, the event will stretch across 25 downtown locations during its four-hour run, with breweries, food vendors and participating establishments serving as individual destinations along the Tap Walk route.
The 2026 Tap Walk runs from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, October 10, in downtown Grants Pass.
