Food festivals have been scarce since the pandemic hit a year and a half ago, but they may finally be coming back.
Nearly 30 Indiana restaurants and breweries will be at the first Indy Chicken & Beer Fest on Saturday at The Pavilion at Pan Am, 201 S. Capitol Ave.
The event will be hosted by EatHere Indy, a niche media site featuring local restaurant openings and other restaurant news, will be the organization’s first major food festival.
EatHere co-founder and CEO Bradley Houser said the event is meant to boost the city’s food festival scene and create community.
“What better way to do that than food?” Houser said.
