A Successful 2021 A Taste of Covington

This year A Taste of Covington 2021 was a success. Each year, restaurants and drinking establishments in Covington take part in this annual food, wine, music and art festival.

Patrons were local and visitors to the area. The proceeds for this year's A Taste of Covington went to the Covington Business Association which in turn helped to advance the interests of local businesses in the city's historic district.  The annual celebration took place the whole month of June.

A Taste of Covington began in 2012 and was mainly just for locals. As it expanded and became nationally known, it now brings visitors from all around to the event. In the past before COVID, the event took place over 5 days. In 2020 COVID pushed the event back to October 2020 and went to a month-long event.

The month-long event includes all-inclusive four-course or more dinners paired with wines. These vintner's dinners are held at participating restaurants throughout Covington. Also, there is the "Festa Del Vino" which is a tasting with live music, the "Grand Tasting which is an evening with live music and wine and ends with the Sunday Champagne Jazz Brunch.

The Grand Tasting this year was the final big event on June 26th. It was at Bogue Falaya Park Pavilion and had over 150 patrons attend. The guest could taste wines and purchase those they loved. Déjà Vu Band ended the night with patrons dancing to their tunes as the day ended with a beautiful sunset over the Bogue Falaya River.
