On Sunday, attendees can celebrate the city’s culinary scene in a FREE, family-friendly event! The festival will feature food for sale, a celebrity chef, cooking demonstrations, trucks, live music, art and vendors, as well as our Neighborhood Battles! These battles will pit chefs head-to-head in a cook-off to win the title of StrEATs Neighborhood
Champion.

There’s a wealth of knowledge in Charlotte’s hospitality community, and we’re spreading that knowledge with help from restaurants! Leading up to the big StrEATs weekend, join us for intimate seminars on subjects such as wine, spirits, gardening, cooking, and more.
