On the first official day of Summer, doesn't sipping a Spritz sound perfect? Moët Hennessy will be popping bottles of Chandon Spritz at Indulge Milwaukee! The moment you walk into the Grand Tasting at American Family Field you'll see their grand display. It may be the very first of over 300 tastings you experience.

Kendall Jenner invites you to sample 818 at Indulge Milwaukee.

A new event celebrating our local food scene is debuting this summer. Indulge Milwaukee is a food, wine and spirit tasting happening Aug. 20-21 at American Family Field (aka, the Milwaukee Brewers stadium).  

Hosted by Wisconsin Restaurant Association Education Foundation, the event includes several spotlighted components:

1. A Grand Tasting Area with food from 30-some Milwaukee restaurants and chefs. Along with the “gourmet bites,” there will be hundreds of wines and spirits sourced from all over the world. Participating restaurants include Antigua Latin Inspired Kitchen, Bacchus – A Bartolotta Restaurant, Bartolotta’s Lake Park Bistro, Blue’s Egg, Carnevor, Onesto, The Cheel, Maxie’s, Mo’s, a Place for Steaks and Ristorante Bartolotta dal 1993.
2.  A Proudly Wisconsin Cheese & Wine Pavilion, featuring award-winning artisanal cheeses paired with wines and charcuterie.
3.  Culinary & Mixology Demos from award-winning chefs, distillers, mixologists and sommeliers 
4. A VIP Experience, which they’re calling a “one-of-a-kind, extraordinary on-field stadium experience at American Family Field.” Spirits, craft cocktails and wine pours will be paired with culinary creations from The Bartolotta Restaurants.

No one felt the weight of the pandemic quite like the service industry. And still now, it can be a struggle to have a fully-staffed restaurant. That's why 100% of the proceeds of Indulge Milwaukee goes straight back into programs that aim to create the next generation of chefs, cooks & restauranteurs!

Mark your calendars for August 20th & 21st so we can indulge in the present and invest in the future!

A new culinary festival of food, wine and spirits is coming to American Family Field in August, and tickets are on sale now.

Indulge Milwaukee promises to offer tastings from award-winning chefs, mixologists and wine professionals with 100% of the proceeds to benefit the Wisconsin Restaurant Association Education Foundation, a charitable organization that provides education and training to current and future industry professionals.

The event hours are noon to 5 p.m. Aug. 20 and 21.
