Providence Culinary and RI Wine Experience returns

After a successful inaugural festival in 2025, the Providence Culinary Collective and Rhode Island Wine Experience will once again host a celebration of local food and wine.

Multi-course dinners, cooking classes, wine tastings and tours will take place beginning March 26 and extending through March 29 at Johnson & Wales University (JWU) and various other Providence locations. Last year more than a dozen events were scheduled for the festival with most being sold out; this year promises to be even bigger with more events. Among these will be the signature Wine-X tasting held at The Capital Grille featuring over 30 vendors.

Banner printing services are a natural component in promoting festivals.

GoProvidence presented the Providence Culinary Collective with a number of partner organization. GoProvidence CEO and President Kristen Adamo said:



“Providence’s food scene has always been one of its greatest strengths, and the Providence Culinary Collective is a celebration of that. This year’s Providence Culinary Collective builds on that momentum with additional talent, new experiences, and even more ways for locals and visitors to savor the creativity that defines our destination.”




Highlights of the festival will be the chance to enjoy multi-course dinners from Oberlin and Derek Wagner, James Beard nominees, and hands-on learning experiences conducted by JWU’s culinary faculty.

Partnering with GoProvidence in presenting the festival are Johnson & Wales, RMO PR, Hope & Main, Rhode Island Hospitality, Food Trucks In and international media partner Saveur.
