This years featured artist is Alan Jackson, and will also include Jessica Simpson, and Little Big Town. There will also be a few other surprise artist show up, so you are in for a treat this year.

This years event will take place on Sunday, January 25th, at CB Smith Park in Pembroke Pine, Florida.  The gates open early at 8:30am, so for those who love to be in the front row and in the middle of all the action, be sure to arrive early with your lawn chairs and blankets. 

At noon until 6, restaurants and individuals will be slaving away over hot stoves to prove to the world their chili has what it takes to be America’s Next Top Entre.  Residents in the Coconut Grove communities are encouraged to show up, if not for the chili, for the live entertainment, giveaways, beer specials, kids activities, a waiter’s race, and a variety of other planned events.

Kristi House, Miami-Dade’s Children’s Advocacy Center responsible for helping children and their families that have fallen victim to sexual abuse, will receive a portion of the proceeds from this wonderful event.  If interested in participating, please contact Marketing Director of CocoWalk, Cynthia Bettner, at 305-444-0777 ext. 14.
