Sip bourbon, stroll brick streets, and escape to Weston Missouri this July. Holladay tours, wine tastings, and river views—your hidden weekend starts here.
Weston Missouri – Escape in a Glass
Weston Missouri doesn’t shout for attention—it lets the bourbon do the talking. Late July is your window to sip, stroll, and forget what Branson promised. Warm brick streets, shady wine patios, and distant freight whistles invite you to slow down.
There are weekends built for noise—and weekends built for flavor.
Holladay Distillery – Missouri Bourbon in Motion
When you visit Weston Missouri, the Holladay Distillery is a must. Take a historic bourbon tour, catch live music, and sip cocktails under summer lights.
July 26: Don’t miss Noah Anthony live, plus food trucks and signature cocktails. Holladay’s roots date back to 1856—one of Missouri’s oldest working distilleries.
Travel Tip: Book your tour early, arrive 15 minutes ahead, and wear breathable shoes.
Handy Picks: Sun hat, pocket flask, and a local distillery map keep your adventure smooth.
Weston Wine Company – Sipping with a Twist
Keep your Weston Missouri weekend rolling with wine. The Weston Wine Company keeps it fun:
- Paint Your Pet (July 25)
- Real Housewives Murder Mystery (July 26)
Feeling extra dramatic? Book their 1920s Murder Mystery for a speakeasy twist.
Bring a group, book early, and ask for the perfect wine pairing.
Handy Picks: Portable wine tote, printable murder mystery game, and a pocket wine journal.
Historic Downtown & State Park Calm
Weston Missouri’s brick streets lead you to antique shops, boutique inns, and maybe a third distillery if you chase McCormick’s legacy.
When you’ve sipped enough, Weston Bend State Park waits just outside downtown. Watch the sun dip behind the Missouri River from the overlook, or take a shady solo stroll.
Access: Good ADA spots, easy parking, and local coffee shops to fuel up if you roll in early.
Handy Picks: Comfortable walking shoes, hydration kit, and a printed trail map.
A Porch, a Sip, a View
“One porch, two sips, and a view over the Missouri River. It wasn’t dramatic. It just felt earned.”
And that’s Weston Missouri—no noise, no rush. Just your kind of weekend.
