There are four primary components to this fall’s wine festival:

 

KING & QUEEN OF THE VINES

With all the exciting components going on at the Franklin Wine Festival Grand Tasting: wine, food, live music, an auction, and simply great people… it’s like we’re a city unto ourselves. So we needed a King and Queen!

Enthusiastic supporters of Big Brothers Big Sisters conduct personal fundraising campaigns on behalf of the children’s charity beginning in later summer. All donations are tallied on site at the event, and it’s quite simple, the man with the highest fundraising total is crowned King, and the women bringing in the most donations is proclaimed Queen.
The King and Queen candidates hold many different smaller events as part of their fundraising… everything from a Fashion Show and Private Sale to private dinners and crazy personal quests. Why not throw your own tiara in the ring and join us?

GRAND TASTING

Great American BBQ Festival Franklin TNThe Great Americana Barbecue Festival in Franklin, TN!

On August 27th, 2016 the air in Franklin, Tennessee will be filled with the sweet aroma of hickory smoke and simmering sauce for the inaugural ‘Great Americana Barbecue Festival’ at Harlinsdale Farm. Visitors will enjoy some of the most “finger licking good” barbecue around, prepared by professional pit masters and iron chefs from across the country – all within the town limits of Franklin, TN – “the best small town in America” –  according to Southern Living and Trip Advisor.

The BBQ festival is hosted by The Franklin BBQ Society and The Franklin Noon Rotary Club (FNRC). The FNRC has dedicated over six decades of service to its community and has distributed over two million dollars to local charities. FNRC continues to produce The Franklin Rodeo, Williamson County’s longest running annual event, celebrating its 67th year.

Barbecue will take center stage with vendors, grilling demonstrations, a whole hog smoking contest, and a Kansas City Barbecue Society (KCBS) sanctioned barbecue competition, featuring 60 teams competing in five categories for over $8,000 in total cash prizes. Festival goers will be able to join in on the judging by selecting the “People’s Champion”.

Patrons will enjoy local artisan flavors from Tennessee distilleries and craft beers (21+). Additionally, the festival will feature live music, craft vendors, a variety of food vendors and a kid’s zone with Touch A Truck and all sorts of ways for the little ‘pit masters’ to run, jump and play.

The music stage will feature some of the biggest and brightest young talent Music City has to offer. Plenty of special events during the day will make this a “must attend” event for the entire family!

Come experience the Great Americana Barbecue Festival. It is great barbecue and great fun, all for a great cause.
