About the Festival

The Nexton Wine & Food Festival was created with a simple vision: to bring people together through exceptional food, outstanding wine, live music, and memorable experiences.

Held each fall in the heart of Nexton, the festival celebrates the people, flavors, and hospitality that make Summerville one of the Lowcountry's fastest-growing and most vibrant communities.

The Nexton Wine & Food Festival is more than an afternoon of wine tastings. It's a celebration of community. Guests will discover exceptional wineries from around the world, enjoy chef-driven cuisine from some of the Lowcountry's most talented culinary professionals, relax to live music, and experience signature destinations like the Rosé Garden and Bubble Bar—all designed to create an afternoon worth sharing with friends and family.

Whether you're a seasoned wine enthusiast or simply looking for a fun afternoon out, the festival offers something for everyone.

From Executive Chef Roger Thomas and our featured chefs to our winery partners, musicians, sponsors, and volunteers, the festival showcases the incredible talent and hospitality that define The Summerville and Nexton area.

Our goal is to create an event that not only introduces guests to outstanding food and wine but also shines a spotlight on the people and businesses helping shape the culinary scene in Summerville.

The inaugural festival is just the beginning.  Our vision is to establish the Nexton Wine & Food Festival as an annual tradition and one of the Lowcountry's premier culinary events—bringing together exceptional chefs, world-class wineries, local businesses, and our community for an unforgettable celebration each fall.

As the festival grows, so will the experiences, partnerships, and opportunities to celebrate everything that makes this community special.
