Madison Bacon Festival
It’ll be Wisconsin’s largest bacon showcase with bacon lectures, bacon-inspired dishes, bacon competitions, a bacon queen contest, live entertainment and bacon fellowship — all taking place between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. November 1, 2014.
Yes, Road Trips Foodies: the first Madison Bacon Festival, a Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival event, takes place in the Alliant Energy Center, Madison, Wisconsin.
If you’re really “into” bacon, consider entering one of these: the Wisconsin Bacon Royalty Contest and a Bacon Eating Competition. And, mark your calendars for the big one: January 31, 2015, in the Iowa Events Center, Des Moines, Iowa.
The Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival, founded in Iowa in 2001, is a multi-city fest designed to improve enjoyment of all things bacon.
