GastroFest 2019

Posted on March 4, 2019 By Editor

GastroFest is a free, family-and-pet-friendly event that is open to the public, in partnership with the Museum of Science and History. We pride ourselves on highlighting a wide array of local chefs, breweries, musicians, and more, with plenty of options for both omnivores and plant-based eaters.

Chocolate-Covered Datil Pepper Eating Contest at 3 p.m. As in previous years there will be a marketplace of local and gourmet food artisans, as well as products geared towards lovers of craft beer, and home cooks.  Tasting vendors include area restaurants, food trucks and caterers who will offer up a taste of their cuisine with samples from $1-3.

Visit the Sawyer Gas Demo stage to learn about food prep and sample some good eats, and attend some low-cost workshops in the Wells Fargo room inside the MOSH.

The fest is child-friendly, so bring the kids to Fun4FirstCoastKids  Zone. It will be open from 11 a.m.-5 p.m., featuring fun activities for the kids, face painting and more!
