Calling all local chefs, caterers, craft beverage makers and restaurants! King Township is inviting the best food and beverage vendors in the area to participate in the King Food and Drink Fest on Saturday, Jun. 8 from noon to 9 p.m. at Memorial Park, located at 25 Doctor’s Lane in King City. The deadline to submit a vendor application is March 4.

Historically known as the annual ‘King City Craft Beer and Food Truck Festival’, in celebration of its 10th anniversary this year, King Township has decided to expand what’s on the ‘menu’ for 2024! This year’s festival will feature some of the best bites and bevies in the area, much to the culinary and sipping delights of foodies from near and far.

Over the years, this festival has attracted over 3,500 attendees from King Township and surrounding communities, and we expect an increased crowd this year as we plan our biggest festival yet. Event attendees will nosh on culturally diverse cuisines and taste (so many!) libations - whiskey, beer, cider, cocktails, and even mocktails – while enjoying non-stop, live entertainment on two separate stages. 

Food and drink booth vendors get a 10x10 foot space at the event venue. Food trucks will be also be accommodated. Fees start at $200 for beverage vendors and $250 for food vendors. Don’t miss out on the fun – or the opportunity to attract loyal new customers!
