And I couldn’t be more stoked to finally announce that we’re bringing the heat to the Flavortown stage with my buddies Kane Brown, Greta Van Fleet, Bret Michaels, LOCASH, Niko Moon and even more to come. You’re not gonna want to miss this!” Fieri said.
“I was actually born in Columbus, Ohio, so one might say it’s pretty much the birthplace of Flavortown,” said Fieri. “But in 2024, we’re making it official with the launch of Flavortown Fest, two full days of awesome music, the best chefs, real deal food from around the nation and a whole lotta fun that you’re gonna have to see to believe! This festival will truly be the first of its kind, and I couldn’t be more stoked to bring it to my original hometown.”

Flavortown Fest Highlights
Flavortown Fest offers something special for every resident of Flavortown. The festival will take over The Lawn at CAS, a 54-acre campus located on the scenic Olentangy River, embodying Fieri’s larger-than-life energy and charitable spirit. The two-day fun fest will fuse food and funk, featuring eats and experiences from some of Guy’s favorite Triple D restaurants from the Columbus area and around the country.
Bitchin’ Avenue is the Main Street and heartbeat of Flavortown Fest, offering the opportunity to stroll across the festival grounds boardwalk-style where out-of-bounds moments await at each intersection. Flavortown “residents” (aka attendees) can swing by the Not So General, General Store to purchase exclusive Flavortown, Guy Fieri, and other collectibles, rest up at The Pit Stop where the cars will be as classic as old-school diner staples or camp out on Chill Hill with their friends to take in the vibes in a relaxed environment. The Flavortown Fest Hometown Stage will be a special place to host comedy battles, interactive art demos, and veteran programming supported by the National Veterans Memorial and Museum (NVMM).
GA passes are available for residents looking for an awesome event full of top dishes and greatest hits. The GA experience provides access to Bitchin’ Avenue, The Pit Stop, Chill Hill, and more throughout the festival for turbo-charged food and stellar music performances. The fun won’t stop there as Flavortown Fest brings Flavortown Beach to Columbus so residents can enjoy the show from the Main Music Stage with their toes in the sand. Flavortown Fest residents will also get to experience The Culinary Stadium, a one-of-a-kind arena to witness a spectacular culinary competition between some of the biggest names in the business.
Residents looking to dial up their “Triple F” experience can purchase a GA+ ticket inclusive of all the rockin’ perks of general admission plus access to the GA+ Lounge bringing awesome access to shaded seating, dedicated restrooms, exclusive bar and food options, and great views of the Main and Hometown Stage.
Flavortown Cares
In partnership with the Guy Fieri Foundation and CAS, a division of the American Chemical Society, Flavortown Fest will launch Flavortown Cares, an impact program to support the Columbus community. A portion of proceeds from every ticket sold will go to support the NVMM, Ronald McDonald House Charities of Ohio (RMCH), and the Mid-Ohio Food Collective (MOFC). NVMM, RMCH, and MOFC will have a presence on-site at Flavortown Fest with opportunities for Triple F attendees to learn about and support each group on-site.
