About this event
- 6 hours
Tour five showcase homes of Riverside, open to the public for this event only, representing five of Riverside's most iconic architectural styles from Victorian to Midcentury Modern and everything in between. Also visit the landmark Peter J. Weber House, host of our Restoration Faire & Vintage Mercantile with raffle prizes, live music, and vendors selling vintage items from across the decades.
This is a self-guided tour with docents at each home. Home addresses will be sent to you shortly before the event. Your e-ticket or printed QR code will be required for entry to each home. You may visit the homes in any order you wish. Please be prepared to walk to each home from your various parking locations: residential neighborhoods fill up fast. Unfortunately, because these are vintage, private homes, we cannot guarantee ADA accessibility. Exterior photography of the homes is allowed and encouraged – please respect our generous homeowners and do not photograph the home interiors. The event will take place rain or shine.
$30 per attendee.
Online tickets sales will close Friday, May 17, 2024 at 8:00 pm. Same-day tickets will be available starting at 9:30 am at The Weber House for $35.
