The 2023 Cheese Curd Festival is set to bring cheese curd enthusiasts together June 23-24 to enjoy Ellsworth Cooperative Creamery cheese curds and celebrate Wisconsin’s rich dairy heritage in Ellsworth.
Ellsworth is known as Wisconsin’s Cheese Curd Capital. The festival was named as a winner in the 2023 USA Today 10 Best Readers’ Choice Travel Award Contest for Best Specialty Food Festival. Each year, event goers consume 6,000 pounds of cheese curds.
Several unique tasting experiences offer attendees the opportunity to learn and engage with the makers of the festival’s starring foods. On Saturday, kids and adults will compete for the chance to be named the “Cheese Curd Eating Contest Champ.”
Ellsworth Cooperative Creamery produces the cheese curds for the event. Attendees can enjoy Ellsworth Cooperative Creamery cheese curds, along with craft beers, hard ciders, local wines, and more than 20 food dishes that feature cheese curds.
Admission to the festival is free. Location is at East End Park in Ellsworth, Wisconsin.
