Downtown’s Weekly Happy Hour Program Returns with $5, $7, and $9 Drink Specials Every Wednesday Through September

SACRAMENTO, CALIF. (June 22, 2026) – Sunset Sips returns this summer as downtown’s signature happy hour program, inviting employees, residents, and visitors to unwind with discounted drinks every Wednesday from 4 to 7 p.m. from July 1 to September 30. Participating bars, restaurants, and lounges will offer select beer, wine, cocktails, and non-alcoholic cocktails for just $5, $7, and $9, making it easier than ever to reconnect with coworkers, meet up with friends, or discover a new favorite spot downtown.

Now entering its fourth year, Sunset Sips helps drive foot traffic to downtown businesses during the hot summer months while showcasing Sacramento’s growing hospitality scene.

“Downtown’s restaurants and bars are full of operators who take pride in creating memorable experiences for their guests, and Sunset Sips is a great way to highlight that creativity and hospitality throughout the district,” said Michael Ault, Executive Director of the Downtown Sacramento Partnership. “The program offers an easy, affordable way to explore these locations, and because it runs until 7 p.m. – later than any other happy hour – it leaves plenty of time after the workday to actually make happy hour happen.”

New this year, anyone who votes for their Sunset Sips favorites will be entered for a chance to win a $25 gift card redeemable at a participating Sunset Sips business. Participants can cast votes throughout the program for categories including Friendliest Staff, Best Date-Night Spot, Best After-Work Vibes, and the location they’d most like to revisit. Voting is unlimited and open through September 30. People are encouraged to explore as many participating locations as they’d like.

  • The 7th Street Standard at the Hyatt Centric
