Winging It

Hilton Head Wingfest is returning for its 26th year. The event, presented by Island Recreation Association, Hargray, and Savannah Hilton Head International Airport, is set for 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. March 18 at Lowcountry Celebration Park.

“Be there!” said special event director Joe Cain.

The event will feature 20–25 local restaurants cooking their best wings. More than 6,500 pounds of chicken wings will be served at the fun-filled, family friendly-festive atmosphere. There will be a kid’s zone, rock-climbing wall and bungee jump. There’s also a Kid’s Wing Bobbing competition and Adult Wing Eating contest. Vote for your favorite wing and watch the winner be crowned.

There will be more than just wings. Entertainment includes Crosstown Traffic, True Gentlemen and The Naked Karate Girls.

Last year’s Judge’s Favorite’s top prize went to One Hot Mamma’s and the People’s Choice was Coconutz.

Admission is $10. Children under 11 are free. For more information, visit hiltonheadwingfest.com
