“In 2013 we saw about 50,000 during the three day festival and we are expecting the same, if not more​ (weather permitting ​, of course!​),”Jackson-Clockston said.

Taste of Fort Collins is about bringing the community together through tasty food and drinks with great music.

“I have never been but I am looking forward to hearing the good jams, socializing and there is this amazing wine mix called Frappe Vino, that I am going to buy,” said Sina Good, an international studies senior.

According to Jackson-Clockston, Taste of Fort Collins has always had great partnerships within the community, but this year they have added a second stage for more local bands to get the chance to play.

In addition to the upgraded music opportunities there will be two beer gardens, a wine pavilion as well as a craft beer pavilion.

“If you are a foodie like we are​,​ you will as excited as we are to know that there will be over 50 food vendors for you to choose from ​. Odell Brewing Co. and New Belgium Brewery are again the exclusive beer sponsors of Taste.”
