The cheesiest showdown of the year is back! The 3rd Annual Mac & Cheese Festival, presented by Dakota Community Bank & Trust, returns Saturday, May 10, from 4-8 PM in the newly renovated Downtown Bismarck Depot parking lot.
This year’s festival will once again feature eight of Bismarck-Mandan’s top chefs, restaurants and food trucks, all competing for a cash prize, championship trophy and ultimate bragging rights.
Attendees will have the power to vote for their favorite mac & cheese vendor, helping crown the 2025 People’s Choice Winner. 2023 champion, Laughing Sun Brewing Co., is already confirmed to compete, with more vendors to be announced soon.
The festival also features live music, interactive games and activities for all ages, and a variety of drink and dessert options, including beer, seltzers and ready-to-drink cocktails.
Funatix Events is partnering with Heaven’s Helpers Soup Café to ensure no mac & cheese goes to waste, donating leftovers to those in need. Heaven’s Helpers will also be on-site to share more about their impactful work in the community.
🚨 Limited Tickets Available – Buy in Advance! 🚨
