Kick off the best season in the Lowcountry with the Hilton Head Island Wine and Food Festival, returning March 22–28, 2026. Expect sun-kissed days, delightful wines, and delectable bites from the region’s top culinary talents.

For 41 years, this festival has given back to the community. Proceeds from the Grand Tasting and Public Tasting wine auctions support the John F. & Valerie Currie Educational Scholarship Fund, which assists college students pursuing hospitality and tourism degrees. The scholarships are offered at the University of South Carolina Beaufort and the Technical College of the Lowcountry. Over the past nine years, the fund has distributed $155,000 to deserving students, helping shape the next generation of industry professionals.
