Atlanta Wing Fest Takes Flight at Uptown Towers: 25 Local Eateries Battle for Best Wing Honors

Atlanta's culinary scene is set to sizzle during the Atlanta Wing Fest on Thursday, April 18. Building on the success of seven years of the Southern Wing Showdown, this 21-and-over event, part of Taste of Atlanta, promises to bring together some of the city's finest wing connoisseurs. From 6-10 p.m., the Towers at Uptown Atlanta will be abuzz as 25 local restaurants showcase their most delectable wing creations. Four culinary judges will have the challenging task of selecting the "Best Buffalo Wings" and the "Most Creative Wings." Attendees will play a vital role, casting their tokens to determine the "Best Wing in Atlanta" along with awards for the "Best Beverage" and "Best Dessert." In addition, there will be beer, wine and craft cocktail tastings, mixology demos and music from DJ Tron. The Towers at Uptown is located at 570 Main St. VIP and general admission tickets can be purchased on the event website.
