Downtown Wichita Falls Development

Downtown Wichita Falls Development We believe downtown is the heart of our city and is vital to the growth and success of Wichita Falls. Membership remains an essential part of our programs.

We help promote the downtown area and our business members. In 1994, North Texas Vision of Wichita Falls was incorporated as a 501 (c) 6 organization dedicated to the revitalization of downtown Wichita Falls by combating deterioration; promote the common good and general welfare of the community; improve living conditions and promote economic development in downtown Wichita Falls. Because the ‘par

ent organization’ was membership based, in 2000 the organization formed the 501 (c) 3 known as Downtown Wichita Falls Development, Incorporated. The Downtown Wichita Falls Development organization was created to assist in preservation of buildings, sites, and historical, traditional or cultural values; to perpetuate customs and traditions which seem to beautify and enrich the community life of Wichita Falls; to disseminate knowledge, promote interest and act in an advisory capacity to interested groups, property/business owners, investors or developers interested in the revitalization of Downtown Wichita Falls. Mission: Through public and private investment we will improve the downtown, entice new business and residents, and grow the economic base of our community and current businesses.

Last call, and it just got cheap.

Hotter'n Ale is TOMORROW and we are almost completely sold out. Every team is gone except one, Red Dress, so we are dropping the price. Flash sale: Red Dress tickets are now just $20, half off, right now until they are gone.

And no, you do not have to wear a red dress. Wear a costume, wear your regular clothes, wear whatever gets you out the door. We just want you there.

Quick clarification, since it is a flash sale. Keep your clothes on. Bring your $20, not a wardrobe malfunction.

Doors tomorrow at 5, crawl at 6, Downtown Wichita Falls. When Red Dress fills, the whole event is sold out. Grab yours now. downtownwf.com/hottern-ale

YOUR SATURDAY GAME PLAN IS SET. 🔥

Hotter’N Ale 0.5K is THIS SATURDAY, and here’s how the night is going down:

🍻 5:00 PM | Pre-Party + Registration
🏃 6:00 PM SHARP | Pub Crawl Starts… DON’T BE LATE
🎉 9:00 PM | Post Party
🏁 10:30 PM | That’s a Wrap

And guess what we have… 💦 an AWESOME WATER SLIDE. Because apparently drinks, a 0.5K and a downtown party weren’t enough. 😂🔥

Haven’t grabbed your ticket yet? Now’s the time. We still have room on the RED DRESS TEAM, so rally your crew and get registered before Saturday!

Some people run a 5K in August. We run a 0.5K. That is point five, roughly 1,640 feet, most of it pointed toward a cold drink. Hotter'n Ale is Downtown Wichita Falls' proudest low-effort tradition. Five bars, four teams still open, one block party, and every dollar goes to keeping downtown thriving. Presented by Pacifico Clara. 21 and up. Saturday, August 22. downtownwf.com/hottern-ale

Pajama Crawl is gone, but you still have four ways to embarrass yourself downtown on August 22. Red Dress, where legs are optional and fun isn't. Santa Con, full Santa in August, no questions asked. Roper Romp, a full Three's Company muumuu situation. Or the Country Club crew riding the trolley. Pick your costume, pick your people, and grab your spot before your first choice sells out too. downtownwf.com/hottern-ale

Too refined to walk a 0.5K? That is exactly what the Downtown Trolley is for. The Country Club team rides between stops in style while everyone else strolls, and it is capped at just 25 seats. With Pajama Crawl already sold out, the VLP crew is almost certainly next to go. Champagne taste, domestic beer budget, very limited seating. Claim yours while it lasts. downtownwf.com/hottern-ale

One team down. Pajama Crawl is officially SOLD OUT, which means the people who came to sleep and slay beat you to it. Four teams left for Hotter'n Ale, and they are moving fast. Ten days until Saturday, August 22. Pick your team and grab your spot before another one closes. downtownwf.com/hottern-ale

It's back- and the countdown is on!

This year you get the best bar crawls in America in one night, right here in downtown Wichita Falls. The Hotter'n Ale 0.5k.

Half a kilometer, start to finish. We took a 5k and cut the part nobody enjoys.

Five legendary crawls will be working their way through downtown: the Red Dress Run, Santa Con, the Pajama Crawl, the Roper Romp, and the Country Club Crawl. All in one evening, all within stumbling distance downtown.

Costumes encouraged.

Comfortable shoes optional.

Mark it down. Saturday, August 22nd.
Tickets go on sale July 5th, we'll post the link when it's time.

Follow the page now so you are first in line when the link drops. This event always sells out in a day or two, so you'll want to keep an eye on it.

Until then, pick your crawl and tell us in the comments which team you are rolling with.
