Katy Sip N Stroll Returns in April: A Night of Wine, Culinary Delights, and Music Supporting Christ Clinic
This spring, the Katy Sip N Stroll 2025 will offer more than just a night of fine wine and gourmet food—it will be an evening of connection, celebration, and community support. On April 5, from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., The ARK by Norris Event Center in Katy will host the 29th edition of this much-loved event. Attendees will gather not just to enjoy over 300 beverages and culinary delights but to make a meaningful impact on the lives of those in need, with all proceeds benefitting Christ Clinic, a local nonprofit that provides crucial medical care for the underserved in Katy.
A Passion for Wine, Food, and Giving Back
What began as a simple community gathering over wine has evolved into one of Katy's premier events. Food & Vine Time Productions, co-founded by Constance McDerby and her business partner Clifton McDerby, has created an annual tradition that draws wine enthusiasts, food lovers, and philanthropists from near and far. With over $2 million raised for local charities since its inception, Katy Sip N Stroll has become synonymous with generosity and joy.
“We are thrilled to bring the Katy Sip N Stroll back for 2025,” said Constance McDerby. “This event allows us to share our love of wine and food while supporting Christ Clinic, which does so much for our community. It’s a fun and relaxed way to give back, and we can’t wait to see everyone come together for a night of celebration.”

A Tasting Experience Like No Other
At the heart of Katy Sip N Stroll is an extraordinary wine tasting experience. Guests will have the opportunity to sample over 200 wines, craft beers, and emerging beverages from more than 300 selections. It’s a unique chance to explore both well-known wineries and hidden gems, all while savoring the finest flavors of the season.
But it’s not just about the wine. More than 35 local restaurants and food vendors will be on hand, serving up mouthwatering dishes that will compete for the coveted Premier Culinary Awards title. A panel of chefs, media personalities, and food influencers will judge these culinary creations, adding an exciting layer of competition to the event. For guests, it means the opportunity to sample the very best of Katy’s diverse food scene, with the added bonus of discovering new favorites.
A VIP Experience Worth the Toast
For those who want an exclusive taste of luxury, VIP tickets are available, granting early access to the event and access to premium wines not available to the general public. VIPs will also receive a special swag bag, a signature BIG glass, and a selection of perks that make the evening feel even more special.

What sets Katy Sip N Stroll apart from other events is the sense of community it fosters. While guests sip on wine and enjoy gourmet food, they will also have the chance to shop at booths featuring local artisans’ handcrafted goods and art. With Mother’s Day just around the corner, it’s a perfect opportunity to find a unique gift while supporting local talent.
But perhaps the most powerful element of this event is the cause behind it all. Christ Clinic, which provides free and low-cost medical care to those in need, relies on the generosity of the Katy community to keep its doors open. Constance McDerby explained, “We believe in pouring for a purpose—helping the community while having fun. The funds raised at Katy Sip N Stroll directly support Christ Clinic’s mission, ensuring that those who need care can receive it.”
