Nashua Fall Food & Wine Festival To Benefit End 68 Hours Of Hunger

NASHUA, NH — From 6 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 27, food and wine lovers are invited to attend a Fall Food & Wine Festival at the Nashua Center for the Arts, at 201 Main St.

The event brings together numerous local wineries and food vendors, who will offer free samples to attendees, with a primary focus on wine, cheese, and chocolate. These products will also be available for purchase, as will raffle tickets for a "Downtown Nashua Business Basket” filled with items donated by local small businesses.

The first hour, 6 to 7 p.m., will be limited to 75 VIP attendees, who will enjoy a less crowded experience and extra perks. General admission ticket holders are then welcomed in from 7 to 9 p.m. Designated drivers have discounted tickets. All attendees must be 21-plus regardless of sampling status.

This event benefits End 68 Hours of Hunger — Nashua, a local nonprofit that provides food over the 68-hour weekend between school meals, that many families struggle to provide to their children.

In the coming weeks, partnerships with nearby downtown restaurants for dinner deals before or after the event are expected to be revealed. Watch for these details on the Enjoy Nashua Facebook page and the event page.

Sponsors are also still needed to reach the event’s donation goals for the nonprofit beneficiary; please contact kpalmer@nashuanh.gov to discuss opportunities.
