Festival Epicure History

Festival Epicure was conceived in 1995 as a way to showcase Windsor's City Center, local restaurants, regional wines and musicians. From its humble beginnings with an attendance of 300 people, Festival Epicure has become Windsor's most anticipated summer event with over 30,000 attending in 2007. Festival Epicure 2008 will be held at the Riverfront Festival Plaza on the Detroit River across from Casino Windsor July 4th - 6th. With its eclectic mix of R&B, Jazz, Swing, and Pop and food for every taste, Festival Epicure appeals to the whole family.

Again, I would like to thank our title sponsor, The Detroit River Tunnel Partnership along with our many associate sponsors for making the Windsor - Detroit area a great place to live.

A special thanks to our corporate sponsors, vendors, and the good people of the Windsor-Detroit area for helping us raise over $165,000 for the Kidney Foundation of Canada over the last 8 years.
