Historic Richmond Town’s Uncorked! Food & Wine Festival RETURNS

Staten Island, New York: On JUNE 5, 2021, 12-6pm, more than forty fun and fabulous restaurants and chefs will gather at Historic Richmond Town to show off their culinary expertise for the annual Uncorked! Food & Wine Festival. After last year’s Uncorked! was cancelled due to COVID-19, this year Historic Richmond Town is thrilled to be able to open its grounds once again to vendors and visitors alike. 

To accommodate for COVID-19 safety, this year’s Uncorked! will look a little different than past years, and admission will be by advanced, timed ticket purchase ONLY, but with your help and cooperation, it will still be a fun time for the whole family!

The flavor feast marries food and culture and delivers delicious choices at one price. Included with your ticket purchase is a Historic Richmond Town wine glass or souvenir cup, two glasses of wine, or lemonade/iced tea/water to our hospitality tents, FREE food and drink samplings from all participating establishments, access to a series of fantastic photo ops, and entrance to all living history demonstrations. Come taste decadent dishes from local restaurants as you stroll leisurely over ten acres of historic parkland, sipping wine and listening to LIVE music

“We are absolutely thrilled to welcome the community back to our historic grounds to break bread together and celebrate the enduring local small business food industry of Staten Island.” says Historic Richmond Town’s CEO, Jessica B. Phillips.

This year's Uncorked will feature many returning food and beverage vendors as well as some brand new businesses. Visit our website to view a full list of participating vendors, updated daily. Vendors will also have the opportunity to compete in a series of competitions: “Best Dish”, “Best Dessert” and “Best Table Display,” as well as the People’s Choice selected by the guests via text-to-vote. 

Tickets are available for purchase NOW! Entry is by timed entry ONLY with a limited number of tickets available every hour. Any tickets still available for each time slot will be available for purchase day of the event, but availability is NOT guaranteed.
