Here we GROW again….

This charity event will be held for the second consecutive year at the Walk of Fame Park located just in front of the Country Music Hall of Fame (and behind the Hilton Hotel). With cooking teams from near and far vying to take home the $1,000 Grand Prize and “Music City’s Best Wings-2012” bragging rights, there will be no shortage of mouth-watering wings for patrons to sample throughout the day.

For a small donation ($1 suggested donation), hot wing connoisseurs can taste-test entries from each team to fuel a fiery hunger while demonstrating support for a good cause; all proceeds from the MCSHWF will benefit the Ronald McDonald Charities House of Nashville.

Over 20 teams are expected to participate, preparing more than 200 lbs. of wings for the event.

In addition to the 2012 Hot Wing Cook Off the festival will feature

• 2 Music Stages – featuring live music from some of Music City’s most extraordinary artists and performers
• Hot Wing Eating Competition – If you are man or woman enough show us what you got…
• Silent Auction Bring your checkbook so you may bid on a broad array of interesting items and gift certificates donated by business all around Nashville.
• Kids Corner offers an array of fun and activities for kids of all ages.

Gates open at 11am  Festival Closes at 7PM  – We look forward to seeing you there!!
