Trends / Food & Drink

Celebrate the arrival of Beaujolais Nouveau wine to the Rocky Mountain Region in Denver, Colo., — or just enjoy great wine and dining — during the Beaujolais Beyond Food and Wine Festival. Grab your foodie and Francophile friends and head for the 19th year of this unique French-American event and fundraiser for the Rocky Mountain French-American Chamber of Commerce.

Head for the McNichols Event Building Nov. 16, and enjoy various food and wine tastings, celebrations and events including the beloved culinary challenge. Visitors observe more than 20 Colorado-based chefs compete for the People’s Choice Award — and awards from fellow professional judges — while showcasing French-inspired cuisine, paired with Beaujolais Nouveau wine.

Taste French-American cuisine and wine while enjoying live music around the festival. While enjoying French cuisine, wine and tasting Colorado’s many flavors is enough reason in itself to enjoy the festival, the event’s proceeds benefit the French-American Chamber of Commerce and support trade, local business and culture developments in the region. Tickets range $45–80.

Take your foodie passion to the next level and meet local chefs, judges and industry professionals, or just enjoy the French-inspired cuisine and blend of cultures surrounded by the incredible beauty of Denver.
