Magic City Casino, Miami’s first casino to feature Las Vegas style slot machines, hosts the first-ever “Wiener Bash,” presented in partnership with Burger Beast, on Saturday, Nov. 12, from 5 to 9 p.m.
Wiener Bash is a celebration of grill-worthy meats with an extra helping of classic rock. More than 15 South Florida restaurants and food trucks, including Pincho Factory, Shake Shack and Sweet Dogs, will showcase their takes on tasty links while rock legends The Guess Who, War and Foghat grind out classic hits onstage.
Wiener-lovers can enjoy a bottomless sampling of hot dogs, sausages and desserts — and also cast their votes for “Top Dog” in what will surely be a heated competition. The festival is sponsored by Downstairs Convenience Stores, Kraft Heinz, Magic City Casino, Martin’s Potato Rolls and Miami Lakes Auto Mall.
“This festival has all the ingredients of an exceptional event,” said Scott Savin, chief operating officer of Magic City Casino. “We’ve got classic music as well as great vendors ready to put their best foot-longs forward — from traditional fare to exciting twists on the standard dog. Frankly, I couldn’t be more excited.”
All-inclusive packages for this event start at $60. Admission includes unlimited samples of South Florida’s tastiest competing hot dogs and sausages, an assortment of desserts, soft drinks and a seat at the Magic City Amphitheater where the audience will have the opportunity to enjoy musical performances by The Guess Who, War and Foghat.
