Biggest Little City Wing Fest returns to downtown Reno for its 10th year

Drum(ettes) will roll next week in downtown Reno as people gather for an annual two-day celebration, featuring everything from spicy and savory to sweet and unique chicken wings.

The annual Biggest Little City Wing Fest will return for its 10th year on July 26-27, when vendors will line Virginia Street between Second Street and Sixth Street — serving wings, of course, and other items. Festivalgoers can also expect family-friendly activities and live entertainment.

Some 20,000 pounds of a variety of wing flavors including strawberry cheesecake and salted caramel, along with dragon sriracha and habañero will be served at the event presented by The Row.

A judged competition will also occur during the two-day affair for the best wings.
