This weekend in Charlotte, North Carolina, the Taste of Charlotte food festival begins. Streets are shut down and dozens of restaurants get involved. The Taste of Charlotte festival will set you back a quite penny or two, but will even support one of one of the most popular festivals in Charlotte.
The information of Taste of Charlotte
The Taste of Charlotte festival will span five city blocks in Uptown Charlotte. The festival will start 11 a.m. on Friday, June 11 and will at 6 p.m. on Sunday, June 13. There will be more than 30 food vendors, entertainment acts, and dozens of national tours. Admission is free, so the Taste of Charlotte is an excellent place to spend your weekend.
What the Taste of Charlotte costs
The Taste of Charlotte festival has free admission, but that doesn’t mean you won’t be spending some cash. It will cost money for parking and transportation. There is the cost of food and drinks. The vendors don’t take any cash money. You’ll need to purchase from the Taste of Charlotte booths or site special coins. These coins are about $1.33 apiece, and you can purchase food and drinks for anywhere between 1 and 6 coins. Every little thing is sample sized. This means, to get a full meal of any kind, you’ll most likely be spending $20 or a lot more.
Taste of Charlotte for all of the providers
The vendors that are at the Taste of Charlotte won’t be getting the entire $1.33 for each and every token you hand over to them. Instead, the Taste of Charlotte organization takes a percentage of the cost of the coins to pay for any and all of the organizational and administrative costs. Going to the Taste of Charlotte may seem costly, but might really be a less expensive way to check out new restaurants if you spend $6 to get a tasting sample of their wares, rather than $30 to try out a dinner at their regular location.
