Staten Island, New York: On JUNE 11, 2022, 12-6pm, restaurants and chefs will gather at Historic Richmond Town to show off their culinary expertise for the 13th-Annual Uncorked! Food & Wine Festival. Historic Richmond Town is thrilled to be able to open its grounds once again to vendors and visitors in one of its major fundraising events of the year. With the funds raised from this signature event, Historic Richmond Town can provide mission-driven programs and events, and continue its efforts towards restoration and preservation of Staten Island’s history. 

This much-loved annual event marries food and culture, delivering delicious choices at one low price. Included with the purchase of each ticket is a Historic Richmond Town wine glass or souvenir cup, two glasses of wine, beer, or lemonade/iced tea/water at our hospitality tents, FREE food and drink samplings from all participating establishments, cooking demonstrations, LIVE music performances all day long, and entrance to all living history demonstrations. Come taste decadent dishes from local restaurants as you stroll leisurely over ten acres of historic parkland while sipping wine and listening to music.

“As we emerge from the pandemic and return to our traditional programming, Historic Richmond Town looks forward to supporting Staten Island's robust and thriving small business community.” says Historic Richmond Town Events & Festivals Manager, Andrew Andron. “The 13th-Annual Uncorked! Food & Wine Festival will bring together local favorites and their brand-new neighbors alike to showcase the diverse spectrum of food, drink, and hospitality from throughout the borough.”
