Highlands Food & Wine

Highlands

Nov. 10-13

Old Crow Medicine Show, Durand Jones & The Indications and The California Honeydrops are among the performers at this year’s four-day festival, which includes tastings, a food truck rally, wine dinners and more. Now in its sixth year, the celebration of food, wine and music is always a sellout, and the 2022 festival is no exception. This year, the festival has partnered with Lyte, a ticket exchange platform like StubHub, offering procrastinators another option to score tickets. highlandsfoodandwine.com
