The 2016 Delray Beach Bacon and Bourbon Festival

This weekend the Delray Beach Bacon & Bourbon Festival shined a light on our most flavorful food, bacon, and the quintessential American liquor, Bourbon. Guests sampled and learned about more than 40 bourbons — including some of the rarest and hardest-to-find in the world. And, of course, bacon.

TASTE THE RAREST BOURBON IN THE WORLD AT DELRAY BEACH BACON & BOURBON FEST

The Delray Beach Bacon & Bourbon Fest is back March 18 to 19, and this year it really is better than before.

Remember last year when the inaugural edition — which saw nearly 8,000 attendees during the course of the two-day event — received hundreds of complaints for long lines and food shortages? Well, don’t expect the same experience this time around, says Festival Management President Nancy Stewart-Franczak.

“This year we’ve made a number of major enhancements, changes that will make the overall experience much better,” says Stewart-Franczak. “Primary among them, we now have the ability to make more food as the need arises, have added several new bars, and we’ve also opened the event earlier — all to address last year’s prime concerns.”

That means the Delray Beach Bacon & Bourbon Fest will have more of the two things everyone loves: booze and bacon.

Delray Beach Bacon & Bourbon Fest: Florida’s Premier Bourbon Event


With average temperatures around 80°F during March, there are few better warm weather winter destinations than Delray Beach, Florida. The city has a rich and storied history that dates back to its founding by U.S. Congressman William S. Linton in 1894. He originally named the town Linton after himself, but that was short lived because in 1898 he left town. The U.S. Post Office renamed the town Delray and it hasn’t looked back. Now Delray Beach is home to over 65,000 people and is part of the Miami Metropolitan Area.
