Inaugural Flavortown Fest to Take Place June 2024

Guy Fieri has announced he’s bringing Flavortown Fest, a music and food festival, to Columbus, OH on June 1-2, 2024. The chef, award-winning TV host & culinary superstar has planned a weekend full of food, flavor and fun in his hometown. 

“I was actually born in Columbus, Ohio, so one might say it’s pretty much the birthplace of Flavortown,” said Fieri. “But in 2024, we’re making it official with the launch of Flavortown Fest, two full days of awesome music, the best chefs, real deal food from around the nation and a whole lotta fun that you’re gonna have to see to believe! This festival will truly be the first of its kind and I couldn’t be more stoked to bring it to my original hometown.”

Fieri’s Flavortown Fest will take place on The Lawn at CAS, a 54-acre campus on the Olentangy River. The nation’s top chefs and Fieri’s favorite music artists will deliver an unforgettable experience for foodies and music fans alike. While no lineup or programming has been announced yet, we expect it to be bold, loud and one-of-a-kind, like Guy

“We are so proud to host the inaugural Guy Fieri’s Flavortown Fest on The Lawn at CAS,” added Dr. Michael Dennis, Vice President CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society. “This is going to be an exceptional culinary, music and entertainment experience for the city that’s full of fun and will help support the efforts of our hardworking community.” 

Two-day GA and GA+ tickets are on sale now, beginning at $155. Fans who purchase tickets before December 9th will be eligible for VIP upgrades. A portion of ticket sales will be donated to support local Columbus charities. For more information, visit www.flavortownfest.com.
