The Grand Tasting
Beneath a massive tent, the Festival convenes a city block’s worth of delicious bites and sips, with winemakers, craft brewers, and distillers, pouring and pairing alongside the region’s best restaurants and specialty-food purveyors. The Grand Tasting will offer ticket-holders an all-you-can-sample taste of the Pee Dee’s tantalizing food culture, with a performance stage offering chef demonstrations, competitions, and live music!
VIP Access: For $25 more, get access to the Grand Tasting at 11am, one hour earlier than General Admission!
