We’re excited to invite you to the 901 Hot Wing Festival, happening Saturday, November 1, from 12 to 6 p.m. at Grind City Brewing Co. (76 Waterworks Avenue). This deliciously fun event is more than just a celebration of hot wings; it’s a community-driven initiative to support the Memphis Children’s Advocacy Center!
The festival was born out of the creative thinking of two dedicated parents who wanted to raise funds for their kids elementary school without simply asking for donations. Instead, they envisioned a hot wing festival that would bring the community together while benefiting students. Now in its third year, the festival has garnered incredible interest, with expectations of 2,000 to 3,000 attendees and increased involvement from the Memphis Community.
This year’s funds will go towards the Memphis Children’s Advocacy Center. The organizers felt it was important to help all the children in the Memphis area.
Come out and try hot wings from 20 competition teams and vote for your favorite in the People’s Choice competition!
Entry is free; however, donations are expected for wings. Every donation helps support this important cause! 100% of all donations go directly to the Memphis Child Advocacy Center!
