Can you think of anything better than delicious, saucy chicken wings and great music to welcome the warmer days of the year? No need to because WingstockAZ is coming to Mesa on Saturday, April 7th at the Mesa Amphitheatre from 11am to 5pm.
I have to say, this sounds like a really great family-friendly event you won’t want to miss. Come out to the Valley’s only chicken wing festival, Wingstock 2012: Where Chicken and Music Meat. This festival is one of a kind combining live music and the very best chicken wings in the Valley. Top restaurants will be competing again this year to see if they can dethrone last year’s “Wingstock King of Wings” NY Boyz Subz and Wingz. Plus, enter in the chicken wing eating contest–5 pounds of wings in 7 minutes–can you handle that?! Bands will be performing throughout the day, and there will be a Kids Zone with free bounce houses, face painters and more! Bring the kids early for an Egg Hunt in the Kids Zone at 10:30 am! (Kids under ten get in free with adult paid admission).
Some of the restaurants participating range from The Tilted Kilt, Long Wong’s, Native New Yorker, Teakwoods and Cogburn’s Big Wings amongst others.
While you are recovering from all the tasty wings you indulge in, you can listen to the music of Pete and The Shortcummings, Johnny Anonymous and Darkness Dear Boy.

Center St. Advance tickets are $8 which includes your admission ticket and 4 wing coupons, or $20, which includes your admission ticket and 20 wing coupons.
