It was HOT! Really hot, but that didn't stop the crowds this past Saturday from stopping in and visiting with nearly 80 vendors, hearing some live music, and drinking some ice cold beer! Wine and beer enthusiasts strolled through the park, visiting vendor booths and tasting a variety of local brews and wines. The festival, organized by the Harker Heights Chamber of Commerce, has been putting on the event for 16 years, adapting and growing to make this year's event one of the largest. This year’s event was free for everyone, aside from an optional $25 parking fee that went to charity. Harker Heights Mayor Michael Blomquist kicked the event off by tapping two ceremonial firkins, and a toast and music by the 1st Calvary division band. VIP guests were treated to mixology classes by Gambit Social House, a food pairing by Southern Roots Brewing, and a pottery demonstration.
In addition to great drinks, the festival concluded with live music from Austin-based cover band LC Rocks, who had the crowd rocking to hits from the ‘80s and ‘90s.
Food, Wine & Brew Festival was a huge success, continuing a tradition that’s 16 years strong!
