Wake up and smell the bacon at Baby Got Brunch

Step aside, Charli XCX and Lorde. Summer’s most iconic duo: Brunch and 90s culture.

Baby Got Brunch , one of Indy’s most iconic food fests, is back for its sixth year on Saturday, Aug. 10. Here’s everything you need to know to get jiggy with it.

🍳 What’s the word

This isn’t your average food fest. Think of it as an old-school rap battle, with local chefs duking it out to win awards for the best bites, all set to nonstop 90s hip-hop jams.

In addition to brunch bites from some of the best local restaurants and chefs, tickets include bottomless mimosas + bloody marys, as well as access to an open bar — so you can get sippin’ on gin and juice.

🍳 Chowing down for a cause

Each year, Baby Got Brunch selects a local beneficiary, with a portion of every ticket donated to a local organization that has a real impact in Indy. Previous initiatives have focused on food insecurity for school-aged children + maternal health and wellness, and have benefited The Damien Center, The Milk Bank, and The Patachou Foundation.

This year’s event will benefit 91 Place , a home that provides transitional housing, workforce development, and mental health support to youth ages 18-24 facing homelessness in Indianapolis.
