Nashville food lovers, mark your calendars. This is a picnic you won’t want to miss. On Sept. 12, from 5 to 7 PM, Les Dames d’Escoffier Nashville will host A Dame Fine Picnic at Musicians Corner in Centennial Park.
This signature fundraising event shines a well-deserved spotlight on the women who help shape Nashville’s food scene. Picnic baskets for two will be curated by some of the city’s most celebrated female chefs and culinary brands, including names you already know and love like Trisha Yearwood, Maneet Chauhan, and Margot Café. Each basket is perfect for spreading out on the lawn with friends while live music plays, or packing up to take home for a cozy evening.
Beyond being a delicious night in the park, A Dame Fine Picnic also supports an important cause. Proceeds from the event benefit career advancement grants and scholarships for women in food and hospitality, helping to uplift the very people who keep Nashville’s dining scene so dynamic.
Baskets are limited and available for pre-order until they sell out. If you’ve been looking for the perfect excuse to gather your friends, enjoy an evening in Centennial Park, and support local talent, this is it. Get your tickets here.
