Don’t put down your forks after Dine Nashville — another citywide culinary event is setting the table in late April.

Music City Food & Wine Festival, a collection of new and returning foodie events, will offer something for every palate from Thursday, April 24 to Sunday, April 27.

  • The Intimate Dinner Series opens the festival with meals hosted at Tailor, Bourbon Steak, Maiz de la Vida, Deacon’s New South, and Margot Cafe & Bar.
  • On Friday, dine under the stars at Centennial Park for Feast, a multi-course seated dinner with wine pairings.
  • Saturday’s Grand Tasting, described as “the heart of the festival,” will feature the Iron Fork competition, samples from 40+ wine and spirit brands, and bites from these Nashville restaurants.

Other events include the Food Faire Market and Brunch Garden, wine seminars, cooking demos, cookbook signings, and Big Gay Brunch hosted in restaurants across town. More details will be announced soon, with tickets for select events already available via tiered passes.
