Tickets on sale now for Foodlink’s Festival of Food!

Rochester, NY – Foodlink’s signature fundraiser, the Festival of Food, will return on Monday, Sept. 14 at the Rochester Public Market, bringing together the region’s top restaurants, wineries, breweries, bakeries, caterers and more for an unforgettable evening in support of Foodlink’s mission. Tickets are now on sale!

As the largest independent tasting event in the region, the Festival of Food offers an all-you-can-eat-and-drink

experience featuring dozens of local establishments. Guests will also enjoy live music from BB Dang while sampling the best of Rochester’s vibrant food scene—all in support of Foodlink’s work to end hunger and build healthier communities.

In the lead-up to the main event, Foodlink has launched a new series, Festival of Food on the Road, a traveling

celebration bringing the flavor, creativity, and community spirit of the festival, hosted by long-time festival partners.

The series began last month with a stop at Living Roots — and will make its second stop July 9 at Grappa. Each pop-up event highlights local food and beverage partners, offers special menu items, and gives attendees a preview of what’s to come at the main event in September.

Festival of Food on the Road schedule:

• Grappa — July 9 | 4:00 – 7:00 PM

• Lento — August 12 | 4:00 – 7:00 PM

Festival of Food tickets will be available for purchase both online at FoodlinkNY.org/FOF26 and at upcoming Festival of Food on the Road events. Tickets are priced at $85 for General Admission and $115 for VIP.

Join Foodlink this summer and fall—both on the road and at the Rochester Public Market—to celebrate the very best of Rochester’s food community while making a meaningful impact in the fight against hunger.
