Wellington Bacon & Bourbon Festival
Community Center & Amphitheater, 12100 Forest Hill Blvd. Wellington, FL 33414
Bacon, Bourbon … Do We Need to Say More?
Everything is better with bacon! Especially bourbons and whiskeys. Talk about tasting pleasure. Just add in FREE admission … now you have a festival.
Take Flight, Go to Whiskey Heaven
Why try just one? Bourbon flights are something new at the Festival this year, making it easier to discover different brands from across America. Drop in on The Last Drop bar, where you can impress your bourbon-loving friends by indulging in rare brands from the Festival’s private selection. It’s all to prepare you for a trip up to whiskey heaven. Taste one of the best whiskey distilleries in the nation, Garrison Brothers, fresh off a win as the 2021 American Micro Whiskey of the Year.
Pig Out!
Hey, no one’s watching. Feast on some serious bacon. Go from bacon garlic cheese fries to jerk pork in cup to the ultimate zest… chocolate covered and caramel nut dipped bacon desserts. Just start with dessert! And there are more menu items developed by local chefs exploring the boundaries of the Farm to Table movement and old-fashioned comfort foods.
Be Mindful
Yes, the event is free. However, the Festival is limiting the amount of people allowed onto the grounds at a time. Palm Beach County mask mandates must be followed, social distancing is encouraged, and make sure to use sanitizer or frequently wash your hands.
Be an Insider
Now that you’ve “pigged-out,” how about some “horsing around” in Wellington, the equestrian capital of Florida? Or, take the short trip to Lion Country Safari, where animals get to roam free while you stay inside your car. Don’t forget to post a selfie with one of the many exotic animals you’ll find on your adventures into this wilderness park.
