The idea for the Buffalo Wing Festival came from a movie called Osmosis Jones. Bill Murray starred as a compulsive eater with a goal of attending the Super Bowl of junk food, The National Buffalo Wing Festival. Ironically, there wasn't one! That is when native Buffalonian Drew Cerza, now affectionately known as the Wing King, decided to make it happen. Now celebrating its 17th year, the National Buffalo Wing Festival draws wing lovers from across the globe! Join us for #WingFest18 Labor Day Weekend, September 1-2, 2018 at Coca-Cola Field in Buffalo, NY!

AS WE ENTER INTO OUR 17TH  YEAR, the festival is recognized as one of the best in the country. In 2017, the festival drew more than 51,000 visitors. Over the last 17 years, the festival has drawn more than 865,000 people and served more than 4.6 million wings. The festival, which also supports local charities, has donated more than $345,000 since its inception.

So “WING IT TO BUFFALO” and join us for the fun and excitement at one of America’s greatest food festivals this Labor Day Weekend – The National Buffalo Wing Festival!
