Grand Tasting, 2-Day Pass
It's the Biggest, Queerest Grand Tasting, Ever!
Join us in savoring and celebrating LGBTQIA+ chefs, winemakers, distillers, purveyors, and more at the iconic High Street Place. We're spreading out across the entire food hall and spilling onto High Street itself, more than doubling our size over last year's popup event.
With new and returning chefs joining from both Boston and across the country, we'll be serving up enough bites, drinks, and entertainment to span over two days. Come for one day or check out all of our chefs and entertainment with a weekend pass. And if you're ready for a self-care moment, choose an early entry GA ticket or the VIP experience to truly pamper yourself.
