NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, The Infatuation announced the return of its signature food festival EEEEEATSCON presented by Chase Sapphire on Saturday, October 12 and Sunday, October 13 – marking the event’s fifth year at Forest Hills Stadium since it launched in 2018.
This year’s event will offer exciting programming including conversations with actress, producer, and entrepreneur Sofia Vergara, chef, restaurateur, and two-time New York Times best-selling author and actor Matty Matheson, and live show with Girls Gotta Eat podcast, with more announcements to come. In addition to more than 30 participating restaurants at this year’s event, guests can also expect more exclusive collaborations at the festival including Los Angeles’ Community Goods and New York’s Apollo Bagels and Cloudy Donut Co. and Sugar Hill Creamery.
EEEEEATSCON New York will feature some of The Infatuation’s greatest hits from New York City and across the country, including Gotham Burger Social Club, Border Town, Brooklyn Curry Project, Radio Kwara, Sappe, Salt & Straw, Milk Bar, TOMA (MIA), Charles Pan Fried Chicken, Dune Brothers (RI), Isabel’s (MIA), and more!
EEEEEATSCON is a different kind of food experience built in the spirit of a music festival, but with restaurants as the headliners. Event lineups are shaped by The Infatuation’s editorial expertise, just as the restaurant discovery platform helps its readers find expert recommendations for every situation.
“EEEEEATSCON has become an iconic food and cultural event in New York City,” said Paul Needham, CEO of The Infatuation. “We're excited to be back, bringing great local and out-of-town restaurants, unique collaborations, and incredible programming to our readers and all New Yorkers. Four weekends a year, now across the entire country, we are able to bring The Infatuation’s digital voice to life — and we hope to see you there.”
EEEEEATSCON New York pre-sale tickets are available today through September 4 exclusively for Chase Sapphire Reserve and Preferred cardmembers for 50% off (plus applicable taxes and fees). Pre-sale tickets will grant Chase Sapphire cardmembers access to EEEEEATSCON at 11 a.m. local time, one hour earlier than general admission tickets. General admission tickets will go on-sale September 4 at 10 a.m. ET for $41.86 each (including taxes and fees).
Chase Sapphire Reserve cardmembers will also have access to unique cardmember-only perks, including a complimentary beverage, entertainment, exclusive bites from Momofuku and more within the Chase Sapphire Reserve Lounge. Chase Sapphire Reserve cardmembers can also purchase tickets for an exclusive cocktail class by renowned NYC cocktail bar, Apotheke, through Chase Ultimate Rewards.
The announcement follows the recent return of EEEEEATSCON Chicago, which took place in July at The Salt Shed (Chicago, IL), EEEEEATSCON Los Angeles, which took place this past June at The Barker Hangar (Santa Monica, CA), and EEEEEATSCON Miami, which took place this past February at Bayfront Park (Miami, FL). With live music performances throughout the day and panels from thought leaders and industry pioneers, EEEEEATSCON is as much about connecting with a community and getting inspired as it is about eating and being entertained.
The Infatuation was acquired by JPMorgan Chase & Co. in 2021 to accelerate the firm’s investment in dining and further demonstrates JPMorganChase’s commitment to meeting customers where they are with exceptional benefits, useful content and one-of-a-kind experiences, at scale.
In addition to Chase Sapphire, other brand partners creating special experiences for EEEEEATSCON include Chase® Ink®, LaCroix, DashPass by DoorDash, Lyft, Teremana Tequila, MLB Life, Coca-Cola, & Gold Peak Tea.
