Columbia Food and Wine Festival

The Columbia Food and Wine Festival was established in 2018 through a collaboration between Free Times and the Five Points Foundation along with a committee of dedicated hospitality professionals, tourism players and community leaders. The goal was to showcase the Midlands’ growing culinary scene. The festival has since transformed from a single-day tasting event into a five-day, food-filled fest that gains regional attention for Columbia’s culinary offerings. See their website for all pricing and location information!
