Event Description
The FIRST-EVER annual Evansville MAC & CHEESE Festival is happening at Main Street Food & Beverage, 9th and Main Street on Saturday, March 29th, 2025 from 1-6pm, with a limited 1 hour VIP event at 12pm.
UPDATE 3/27 3:25pm: RAIN OR SHINE. Tickets are pacing for a large turnout, we are excited to see everyone and we have an amazing day planned. We are watching the weather and Saturday appears to have a 20% chance of rain throughout the festival hours (nothing serious to hold anyone back). The Main Street Food and Beverage is an indoor/outdoor venue with building over hangs that create outdoor covered space. In the event of rain, we will have ponchos for sale at the front gate. The festival is primarily on city blocks (no mud). Free parking is available at the back 40 lot, and it is anticipated to fill up due to NCAA games happening down the street at the Ford Center. Thank you for your time and preparations.
