Events

Downtown Garland is now the home of two successful tattoo shops. Tattoo flash events have become popular in the DFW area.

Garland is taking it one step further, adding a neighborhood block party.

While patrons and their friends are waiting for their appointments, downtown Garland is offering guests a live band, games, shopping, food, drink and other amusements.

This event happens on all calendar Friday the 13ths.

The Wine Walk is the GDBA’s largest fundraiser.

Currently the Wine Walk is held 2 times per year.

We sell approximately 300 tickets for these events.

Businesses that participate in the Wine Walk pay a participation fee and receive a case of wine, promotional material to share with customers, a Facebook event page to share with their followers, promotion on the GDBA Facebook page and have 300+ people step into their business on event day.

Guests of the Wine Walk get a collectible stemless wine glass, a chance to win Downtown Dollars that can be redeemed in Wine Walk participating businesses, 1 oz tastes of wine from each participating business, and to enjoy live music on the square.

These events bring the community to our neighborhood while we put our best foot forward to show them a fun time!
