Old Town Golden Hour returns to Plaza Don Luis for Thursday evenings of music, art and shopping through November 19, 2026. The fall series follows a spring run, but its schedule and announced participants are distinct from those earlier Saturdays.
The September 24 kickoff paired music by @theofficialspeedone with live painting by @marimathieu.art and food from @wordofmouth_foodtruck. The announcement does not assign individual times to the music, painting or food service.
Those names belong to the kickoff, not a confirmed lineup for every Thursday. The fall announcement describes a weekly mix of music, art, shopping and drink specials, but does not name participants for later dates.

The fall announcement listed $5 house-wine glasses and wine slushies at NM Wine Studio. Noisy Water Winery offered $6 glasses of Tighty Whitey, Demigod and all Jo Mamma’s wines; Sheehan Winery listed Sparkling Rosé and Sparkling Vidal Blanc at $8 a glass.
Outpost 1706’s $10 Espresso Martinis, Dirty Martinis and Pickletinis were listed from 5 p.m. until closing. That start time is an hour into Golden Hour; Outpost’s closing time is not specified. Check with the businesses about specials for a later Thursday.

Plaza Don Luis sits on the west side of Old Town plaza, across from San Felipe de Neri Catholic Church. Its galleries, shops, eateries and tasting rooms make browsing part of a visit rather than a separate trip.
The plaza’s merchant directory includes Lapis Room Art Gallery and Señor Murphy Candymaker alongside the wine businesses. Check a particular merchant’s hours before making it a focus of your visit; a directory listing does not establish that a business is open during Golden Hour.
