Question 1

Is it really UNLIMITED wings?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Every vendor serves all-you-can-eat wings — jump back in line for more from any of our 11 wing makers for as long as the festival runs.

Question 2

Will there be boneless wings?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not. Our vendors serve real chicken wings only.

Question 3

Are the wings cooked fresh at the festival?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the wings are made on site. Every vendor cooks at their own booth throughout the day, so what lands in your hand came off the heat minutes earlier.

General Admission (All You Can Eat) at $48.47, VIP “Very Important Poultry” at $124.98 (1-hour early entry, dedicated lounge & bar, VIP parking, swag), and a Last Call release at $63.12. At checkout you can add a Child's Ticket ($14.99) or a Wing Eating Contest entry ($24.99).

Question 5

Where do I get tickets?

Accepted Answer

Online only — there are NO door sales, and tickets move fast. Every ticket includes parking while supplies last, so buy ahead and arrive early.

What's included?

Accepted Answer

All-you-can-eat wings, a People's Choice voting card, parking, live music, and access from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM (VIP ticket holders get in at 12:00 PM). Drinks and merchandise are available for purchase.

Question 7

How long can I stay?

Accepted Answer

As long as you like. There's no time limit and no entry window — one ticket covers the whole festival, 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM (VIP ticket holders get in at 12:00 PM). Come early, pace yourself, and make a day of it.

Question 8

Is there entertainment besides the wings?

Accepted Answer

Yes — live music plays through the day, and there's the Wing Eating Contest, People's Choice voting, and a family-friendly Kid Zone to work your way through between rounds.

Question 9

Is parking available?

Accepted Answer

Yes — parking is included with your ticket while supplies last. Arrive early to be sure of a spot.

Question 10
