no charge to attend, just for food & special events
There is no fee to attend the Food & Wine Festival, however there are many events that do require a separate fee/admission, such as the Party for the Senses (around $90) special Wine Pairings, Signature Dinners, etc.. Also, you do have to pay for the food at the individual booths - from $1.50 to $4.50 for each appetizer size portion.
It's a great event and everything that we've tried has been worth it. We'll be attending again this year, including another Party for the Senses.:slurp:
(Of course, park admission IS required to attend the festival)
