Salt Lake isn’t just a haven for outdoor enthusiasts but also a vibrant culinary destination. At Eat Drink SLC, one of the city's premier food events, you can experience the best of both worlds. Whether you're a local foodie or visiting from out of town, this event promises a seat at the table to experience the best of SLC's diverse flavors.
What is Eat Drink SLC?
Eat Drink SLC was created 9 years ago as a response to the growing sense of urbanism in Salt Lake. As the city has changed, its tastes have changed with it. The growth of chef-driven and owned restaurants and the rise of craft beverages, urban wineries, and local distilleries have elevated the city's palate. Eat Drink SLC is "a delightful way to celebrate our community's coming of age as a culinary hotspot, and raise visibility for the vibrant food and drink scene with both locals and tourists," according to Tracey Thompson, President of Vine Lore Wine and Spirits, and co-organizer of the event. Thompson says that the festival combines food and drink in a way not found in other Utah events by fostering "an appreciation of the synergy between food and drink, not just one or the other, but the marriage of the two."
Food and Drink Partners and Organizers
Vine Lore Wine and Spirits is joined by an impressive list of award-winning Salt Lake City restaurants and food businesses, as well as a remarkable group of drink purveyors. Eat Drink SLC is hosted by a nonprofit partnership consisting of Tracy Aviary and SB Dance. These two organizations represent, respectively, a venue and an artistic group that help create the unique character of our community. A third nonprofit, Women of the World, empowers refugee, immigrant, and asylum-seeking women and families for self-reliance as they create new homes in Salt Lake County. In addition to celebrating the culinary richness of the community, Eat Drink SLC looks to honor the entire food and drink industry, as well as contributing every year to local non-profits like Women of the World.
