Boca Raton ready to binge at Boca Bacchanal Wine & Food Festival 2016 (April 8‐9)
Food lovers and wine amateurs rejoice, the Boca Raton welcomes back the Boca Bacchanal Wine & Food Festival for a whole week-end of great food, wines and events for its 14th Annual edition on April 8‐9, 2016.
More of an exclusive culinary experience than the average wine & food festival, the year's most anticipated upscale gastronomy event in Boca Raton will benefit the Boca Raton Historical Society & Museum.
The two‐day gourmet extravaganza will kick-off on Friday evening, April 8th, with its traditional Bacchanalia event at Mizner Park Amphitheater featuring international wine tasting and fine foods from 30 local restaurants.
First in line on the music stage will be Timothee Lovelock, a DJ Violinist from New-York that will fill the space with its mix of violin and electronic music, while Saks Fifth Avenue puts out a fashion show.
On Saturday April, 9th, the local gastronomy will be celebrated with no less than six Vintner Dinners in various luxury homes across Boca Raton, which are as many unique culinary experiences as world-famous chefs pair up with the best Vintners to cook exquisite 5-course dinners accompanied by world-class wines and champagnes.
New to this 14th edition, the Pre‐Bacchanalia Social Hour will let guests mingle with vintners and get a first taste of wine samples from the Bacchanalia selection.
