Chefs For Farmers Food + Wine Festival

Chefs For Farmers Food + Wine Festival comes to Dallas November 6–8, 2026, with the Main Event at Old City Park. Guests experience unlimited food and drink from Texas chefs who work directly with local farmers. This is a celebration of the people who grow the food and the chefs who turn it into something memorable.

Dallas has been home to Chefs For Farmers Food + Wine Festival since the beginning.

What started as an intimate farm-to-table dinner has grown into one of Texas’s defining food and wine gatherings – still grounded in the same idea: chefs and farmers working together, and guests getting to taste the difference.

The Main Event at Old City Park continues that tradition with all-inclusive tastings, regional ingredients, and a community of people who care about where their food comes from.

Miranda Lambert To Kick Off Salvation Army's Red Kettle Campaign

Multi-Platinum, three-time Grammy Award-winning country music superstar Miranda Lambert will perform live at AT&T Stadium during the nationally televised Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving Day game against the Philadelphia Eagles for the 30th consecutive Salvation Army Red Kettle Kickoff halftime show. The game will air on Fox at 3:30 p.m. CST, shining a spotlight on the needs of millions during the holiday season and throughout the year.

This year marks The Salvation Army's 136th Red Kettle Campaign. Over the last three decades, the kickoff performance has become a holiday staple, using one of the biggest national stages in sports to help the Red Kettle Campaign raise more than $3.4 billion.

"There's something special about how music brings people together, especially when it's to spread joy and hope to families who need it most," said Miranda Lambert. "The Salvation Army and the Dallas Cowboys have built an incredible tradition with the Red Kettle Kickoff, and I can't wait to be back home in Texas this Thanksgiving to help carry it forward."

Every donation stays in the community in which it's given to provide help and hope for those in need. To learn more, give help, or get help, please visit SalvationArmyUSA.org.
