Tickets on sale this week
Charleston Wine + Food Festival took a break in 2021, but it’s making a big comeback March 2-6, 2022, with larger spaces and a huge list of talent to join the festivities.
With nearly 100 events throughout the area, the 2022 fest is your chance to once again immerse yourself in latest culinary happenings around Charleston.

Here are some of next year’s highlights:
The Lawn @ Culinary Village
Friday to Sunday

The Culinary Village has been a long cornerstone for the event. In years past, it’s been located downtown in Marion Square. For 2022, Culinary Village has found a new home at Riverfront Park, with more room to roam, a view of the river, plenty of fresh air and a large selection food and drinks on offer.
The Lawn will be a ticketed event, offering guests access to a web of “neighborhoods” of food, artisans, beverages and experiences, such as chef demos, and live music. Tickets to The Lawn are available Friday, Saturday and Sunday and are all individually ticketed.
New in 2022, Charleston Wine + Food will be offering a CV Pass, which offers leveled-up Culinary Village experience, the chance to snag tickets early, a gift with purchase, and exclusive on-the-ground pass perks.
In addition to the traditional paid experience of The Lawn, Culinary Village will offer The Pavilion, a free-to-attend experience with food trucks where you can buy a bite and a beverage to experience the the Culinary Village.
