Pocono Raceway’s Pennsylvania Wing Fest will be held Noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday, August 26. Admission to the event is free. Wing tickets proceeds will benefit Monroe County Meals on Wheels and will provide approximately 3,000 meals to those in need.
Mouth-watering wings, an increase in vendors, $4,000 in prizes, live music and ice cold beverages are among the highlights of Pocono Raceway’s Pennsylvania Wing Fest. A host of area restaurants and food service providers will be on hand to showcase the area’s best wings and compete for four $1,000 prizes in the 23rd annual Pennsylvania Wing Fest.
In addition to free admission, parking for the Pennsylvania Wing Festival is free. Wing tickets are available, the day of the event, for just $1.00 each. In addition to live entertainment, a variety of food and beverages will be offered. Kid-friendly activities and vendors will be featured in the kid’s zone, located next to Tricky’s Kit Kamp, a soft-play area for children.
