July 24, 2023  (Mt. Helix) – The Mt. Helix Food and Wine Festival returns on August 19 to benefit the Mt. Helix Park.  The event takes place from 5 to 10 p.m. at the historic and inspiring Mt. Helix amphitheater and 7-acre nature preserve atop one of our region’s tallest peaks, with 360-degree views.

This year’s event features a Wild West theme. Whiskey Ridge band will entertain on the main stage and The Tradesmen up at the cross location as guests savor food and beverages from over 40 sampling booths.  The park will be transformed with a secret Speakeasy Saloon and  line dancing.

Don’t miss the auction with everything from Legoland Tickets and golf outings to yacht experiences and overnights in exotic places, to private parties for you and your friends at Mt. Helix Park.

Mt. Helix Park does not receive government funding, so this event is critical to keep the park free for the community.  Money raised also supports educational programming, cultural events, saving pollinators, and upkeep of the historic monument built in 1925.

General Admission: $85 member and $95 non-member

VIP Booth Seating: $140 member and $150 non-member

VIP Table Seating: $250
