4/22: FEASTIVAL
This month, a foodie favorite gathering returns to Baltimore to support a very worthy cause. For years now, Feastival has offered epicureans the chance to taste the best of what our city has to offer—from mixologist-made cocktails to gourmet bites from local chefs—all to raise funds to end Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Affecting roughly 40,000 children and adults in the United States, CF is a progressive and inherited genetic disease, targeting the lungs and other organs.

While there is currently no cure for CF, those who attend Feastival—which will be held this year on April 22 at Rash Field Park—can help make one a reality by purchasing a ticket or a group package with pals. The fest’s vendor lineup will include returning favorites like Taharka Brothers ice cream, Blue Pit BBQ & Whiskey Bar, Copper Shark, BLK Swan, and Tito’s Handmade Vodka, with new vendors like The Urban Oyster also in the mix. Rash Field Park. 1-4 p.m. $125-5,000.
