Feastival Dinner tickets are $250 each and include admission to the festival on Friday, May 1, with the feastivities kicking off at 5:30 p.m. with a cocktail hour. Join Harvesters at Union Station for drinks, chef-crafted appetizers, and a multi-course small-plates dinner with sommelier-selected wine pairings—all served right in the heart of Feastival Hall.

Please proceed with caution when partaking in all Feastival events! Harvesters, event managers, vendors and volunteers will not be held responsible for allergic reactions resulting from consumption or cross-contact between foods that may result in a food allergy or reaction. Feastival Dinner guests are asked to alert event organizers and sponsor hosts of allergies. Due to the nature of the small plate dinner, most dietary requests may be accommodated.

There are paid parking garages and lots are available at and surrounding Union Station. Click here to explore rates and locations. Ride KC Public Transportation and the KC Streetcar also provide service to Union Station and Feastival!

Feastival events are a great place to sip and savor, but some are better suited for families than others. The Dinner event is 21+ only. Brunch is family-friendly and welcomes kids, though all guests ages 3 and older will require a ticket.

Feel free to capture the fun! Non-professional cameras and personal recording equipment—like point-and-shoot cameras, GoPro-style cameras, and small DSLRs are welcome. One thing that won’t be taking flight: drones. Please leave them grounded, as drones are not permitted inside Union Station.

Prohibited items include, but are not limited to, outside food and beverages; weapons of any kind (including firearms, knives, pepper spray, stun guns, and concealed weapons); bottles and cans; coolers and picnic baskets; illegal drugs; chemicals; fireworks or smoke bombs; oversized backpacks, suitcases, or large beach bags; skateboards, roller skates, ice skates, roller shoes; and unapproved pamphlets, handouts, advertisements, or promotional items. Bad attitudes and negativity are also not permitted. All bags, jackets, purses, and guests are subject to search upon entry and at any time during the festival. Certain items, such as cameras and video or audio recording equipment, may be permitted at the discretion of Event Management and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Depending on the item, guests may be asked to return it to their vehicle or properly dispose of it, and failure to comply may result in removal from the festival.

Colorful, creative, food-inspired cocktail attire is encouraged. Think hot dog socks, gumdrop earrings, a banana boutonnière, or another fun nod to your favorite foods. Want to keep it simple? Classic cocktail attire with a hint of whimsy fits right in. Dress to impress, have fun with it, and come ready to enjoy the night.
