Ballantyne’s Backyard will ignite this weekend for the third annual Whiskey, Wine & Fire Festival, an outdoor celebration of fine food, spirits, and live music.
This year’s festival includes open-fire grills, whole-animal barbecue, unique wine pairings, and rare whiskey offerings. Expect brisket, ribs, sausages, lamb, chicken, and even ostrich, plus food trucks, a S’mores station, and intimate fire gardens throughout the venue.
Each guest receives a souvenir tasting glass for unlimited whiskey and wine samples. VIP tickets include early entry, exclusive pours, and a take-home bottle of wine.
Live bluegrass, Americana, and country music will set the tone, while vendors showcase BBQ gear, hot sauces, breweriana, and cigars. Organizers recommend dressing for the outdoors, as the event is held entirely outside.
