The City of Charleston, in partnership with Charleston Wine + Food, will host its second annual Wine + Food Street Fest on Thursday, March 7, from 6-8 p.m. This celebration is free and family-friendly.

Three blocks of upper King Street north of Ann Street will be transformed into a pedestrian-only celebration, think: block party. Food, beverages, arts and crafts will be available for purchase, plus attendees can enjoy tunes from DJ Illadell and a marching band.

New additions this year:

Charleston Wine + Food will have a special ticketed tasting experience with the Black Expo. Attendees can explore the Black Expo’s Wine and Spirits Tasting Garden — a curated selection of wine and liquors from Black-owned brands and makers. Tickets start at $25.

Kulture City will be onsite to help individuals with sensory needs enjoy this live event.

Events
The authors include Pulitzer Prize, Booker Prize, and National Book Award nominees and winners.
Proceeds from the event will benefit SC Aquarium Reef Research.
