Crazy New Flavors To Try At This Year’s National Wing Festival

It’s that time of year again! Stock up on the antacids and the kleenex for the oncoming heartburn, runny noses and tears - the National Buffalo Wing Festival is back in Buffalo this Labor Day weekend. 

From August 31st to September 1st, over two dozen restaurants from across the country will bring their delicious wings to Highmark Stadium for the popular festival, attracting wing connoisseurs from around the world. 

If you’ve been to the Wing Festival in the past, you’ll notice a few changes this year, including moving the wing eating contest, sponsors, and live music off of the field to the upstairs area with the other vendors. 

(Don’t worry, though - if you had your heart set on going onto the field where our beloved Buffalo Bills play, you’ll still be able to!)

More changes to the festival include 63(!) new flavors to try from participating vendors, and some of them sound interesting, including flavors involving loganberry, licorice, dill pickles, and even Labatt Blue.
