Along with Oktoberfest and the Gillespie County Fair, the Fredericksburg Food & Wine Festival is fast becoming an anchor attraction for both locals and visitors.
Grand Tasting tickets and badges are available for the event, set for Oct. 21- 26 at Marktplatz and other locations during that week.
A portion of proceeds to the Hill Country Hospitality Relief Fund, supporting local hospitality professionals.
The event, taken over by the Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce in 2024, is a revamped look at the best food and wine offerings in the heart of Texas wine country.
A June Preview Week peek at eventsand offerings helped raise $40,000 for the Community Foundation of theTexas Hill Country’s Flood Relief Fund.
These monies help recovery efforts for the community’s neighbors to the south in Kerrville and Comfort who suffered through devastating floods overthe July 4 weekend.
The October festival will be a “Who’s Who” of culinary and vintner talents, who will bring a huge variety of foods and wine styles that make this area a popular attraction for more than two million visitors per year. Visit fbgfoodandwine.com/2025talent for the lineup.
