Locals Celebrate Day Devoted to Bacon

Love bacon? Go to Bacon Fest

Get ready, San Diego: Bacon Fest is coming.

Yes, you read right, a festival devoted to the incredibly tasty food will be celebrated right here in Americaโ€™s Finest City on Aug. 31.

So what is Bacon Fest? Well, as you can imagine, itโ€™s not vegetarian-friendly. Hundreds of people will gather in Point Loma to sample an array of bacon from local eateries, including Carnitas Snack Shack and Hash House A Go Go. Plus bacon business Slaterโ€™s 50/50, known for its patties featuring 50 percent ground bacon, will have burgers on site for tasting. Yum!

Think thatโ€™s all? Think again. Craft beer from more than 25 popular breweries will be on hand to pair with the bacon-y goodness. There is also select wine, cocktails and desserts to round out your bacon-eating experience.

The 21+ event begins at 1 p.m. on Aug. 31 at NTC Promenade Preble Field Liberty Station. Tickets are $60, with VIP passes priced at $100. 

Aug. 31 is also known as International Bacon Day. Well isnโ€™t that perfect, now you know where to celebrate!
