Sip'n'Shop Event Kicks off Holiday Gifting in Estes Park

The Estes Chamber is teaming up with The Barrel and local vendors for our first-ever holiday bazaar on Friday, December 1st.


Vendors will be set-up inside at The Barrel from 4:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. with unique items to fill stocking and help locals check folks off their gift list, while also supporting small businesses and artisan shops.  


“This is the time of year when we love to create events that bring our locals together and love supporting and connecting with local businesses, so it’s a win-win for all the businesses involved and our community,” said Ingrid Bush, owner of The Barrel. “Plus, we all get to start our holiday shopping with a drink in our hands and surrounded by friends and family,” Bush continued.  


“We hope everyone marks their calendars and makes an evening of coming out to the sip’n’shop,” said Colleen DePasquale, executive director of the Estes Chamber. “We're aiming to have 10 vendors at this event selling wares, and there are spots available,” DePasquale added. 


The event will take place on Friday, December 1st, starting at 4:00 p.m. at The Barrel on Moraine Ave. There is a $10 per person entry fee, which includes a complimentary beverage. As always, The Barrel is family friendly and attendees are welcome to enjoy the food truck on-site or bring their own food to enjoy while they are sipping and shopping.


If your business would like to be a vendor, contact dire...@esteschamber.org

When you visit our BBQ restaurant, you'll notice one of the secrets to our success is the sauce. Our BBQ sauce is signature, and lucky for you, it's available at every location we have. It's gluten-free and all-natural, and we've got some ready for you to take home.


Stop by Smokin' Daves BBQ & Brew in Estes Park, Lyons, Longmont, Denver or Centennial, Colorado today to take home a jar of our signature sauce.
