Every March brings the culinary event of the season with the Charleston Wine + Food festival. The Charleston Wine + Food festival 2023 returns March 1-5 with events up and down Charleston’s waterfront. This non-profit festival supports local foodway initiatives, while showcasing a world-class program.

Around 35,000 people attended the 2022 Charleston Wine + Food festival with even more expected to return in 2023. Attend the Wine + Food Festival for an intimate experience of Charleston’s culinary and hospitality community. The event is 21+, but beyond that all ages will find some of the best food in Low County.
