Wine Women & Shoes Winston-Salem is back for its third year, and it’s shaping up to be the most joyful and meaningful one yet. On Thursday, April 30, 2026, women from across the Triad will gather at Legacy Stables & Events for an unforgettable evening of fashion, friendship, fine wine, and philanthropy, all benefiting Ronald McDonald House Charities Piedmont Triad.
This year’s theme, “Every Table Is a Party,” invites guests to turn a night out into something truly special. Friends are encouraged to reserve a table of 10, and when they do, their group will be treated to a complimentary bottle of champagne, the perfect way to toast a great cause and an even better night together.
Wine Women & Shoes blends glamour with heart. The evening features wine tastings, a boutique marketplace, a seated dinner with salad, entrée, and dessert, and exciting fundraising moments that directly support families with children receiving medical treatment in our community. For families navigating hospital stays, Ronald McDonald House provides a warm, welcoming place to stay close to their child, complete with meals, support, and the comforts of home.
For guests who want an elevated experience, a limited number of VIP tickets are available for $175. VIPs enjoy exclusive early access to the marketplace and wine tastings before general admission doors open, making it the perfect option for those who love first dibs on wine, shopping, and special experiences. General admission tickets are $125.
One of the most talked-about features of the evening is the Wall of Sparkle, a fun and fashionable way to give back. Guests purchase a $50 chance to spin a colorful wheel and select a jewelry box beautifully wrapped in that color. Every jewelry piece is valued at $50 or more, with some boxes holding treasures worth $100 or even $150 and up, adding an element of surprise and delight to the night.
And everyone is welcome to raise a glass. New this year is a Mocktail Station for guests who prefer non-alcoholic options. This upgraded experience ensures everyone can sip something festive while enjoying the evening.
Wine Women & Shoes is about more than a night out; it’s about keeping families together when it matters most. To date this event has raised more than $185,000, helping provide housing, meals, and support for families facing medical crises. In its third year, the event has become a beloved spring tradition, blending style with compassion in a way that truly makes a difference.
Tickets are on sale now at winewomenandshoes.com/rmhcpt. So, grab your girlfriends, plan your table, and get ready for a night where every seat supports a family in need. Because when women come together, incredible things happen and at Wine Women & Shoes, every table really is a party.
