For the event, Kings Island officials have set up five tents near the park’s famous Eiffel Tower, each with its own menu of drinks and dishes.
Offerings include the ice-cold Frosé, Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay, Kings Ridge Pinot Noir, braised beef poutine, smoked chicken salad and more.
The park will also offer two special desserts for the event. The first, the dark chocolate raspberry panna cotta, is sold at the second tent. The other dish, the honey brie cheesecake, will be available at the fourth tent.
Cincinnati-area bands will also perform live music on stages set up near the tower.
After the Food and Wine Festival concludes June 22, the park’s next major event will be the Independence Day-themed Star Spangled Nights, to be held July 4-5. This celebration will feature one of the state’s largest fireworks displays.
