This year’s Cork & Fork, one of Fayetteville’s most anticipated events, is set to be an unforgettable evening of fine wine, gourmet tapas, and live music—all for a meaningful cause. In 2024, the event proudly honors Off-Road Outreach, a local nonprofit dedicated to addressing the challenges faced by veterans and providing real, tangible support to improve their lives. A portion of all ticket sales will go directly to this remarkable organization, ensuring that attendees don’t just enjoy a night out—they make a difference. The Cork & Fork experience is designed to indulge the senses. Guests will enjoy a wonderful selection of wines, delectable tapas plates that highlight rich flavors and culinary artistry from local business and others in the industry. Whether you’re a wine connoisseur or simply enjoy a great glass, this event promises a tasting experience like no other. Adding to the ambiance is live music by Nicholas Vernon, winner of the 2024 Carolina Country Music Awards Male Artist of the Year. His soulful melodies and electrifying performance will set the perfect mood for a night of celebration.
Beyond the wine and music, Anstead’s Tobacco Company is bringing an exclusive cigar rolling class, where guests can witness and participate in the craftsmanship behind a fine cigar. For those looking for a little friendly competition and surprises, the Dogwood Festival team has a few tricks up their sleeve, ensuring the evening is filled with excitement.
One of the most meaningful aspects of the night is the silent auction, where 100% of proceeds will go directly to Off-Road Outreach. With incredible auction items up for grabs, attendees will have the opportunity to bid generously while knowing their contributions will support veterans in need.
