Orlando\u2019s biggest brunch festival of the year is back and promises a day filled with bites, drinks and plenty of hungry Orlandoans.<\/p>\n

Brunch in the Park heads back to Lake Eola Park on Saturday, April 11, from 1 to 4 p.m. (but Hard Rock VIP entry starts at noon). It\u2019ll take over the grounds near the Orlando farmers market to showcase the city\u2019s top brunch spots and favorite flavors with endless samples and cocktails on offer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Local standouts like Hangry Bison and The Drake Kitchen + Bar make a return, while Brunch in the Park newbies like The Stubborn Mule, Debonair Supper Club and Rusteak also join the lineup. But be prepared to grab bites from many, many more.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From The Drake, attendees can expect chef-driven, creative cuisine; The Stubborn Mule will offer up brunch staples; Rusteak serves elevated comfort dishes; and Debonair Supper Club brings a refined, steakhouse-style vibe to the mix.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The day is all-inclusive: One ticket covers brunch samples, cocktails, NUTRL drinks and premium beer. For those with a Hard Rock VIP ticket, added perks include early entry, a dedicated liquor bar and private shaded lounge seating beneath Lake Eola\u2019s oak trees. VIP guests also get access to eats from Delaney\u2019s Tavern. But be warned: VIP is nearly sold-out, so act fast for the extra experiences.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A DJ will set the musical tone throughout the afternoon, but the real draw is the mix of food, drinks, and smiling Orlando faces all in one place.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re super excited to be back at Lake Eola, working in conjunction with the Thornton Park District, to welcome so many of the city\u2019s amazing restaurants to showcase in the heart of our city,\u201d says Graham Jarrett, Orlando Weekly publisher and creator of Brunch in the Park. \u201cAnd for attendees, we\u2019re super excited for you to experience all the incredible creative brunch cuisine and cocktails the City Beautiful has to offer. It always amazes me when I meet people at the event who have come from North or South Florida just for this. It\u2019s a testament to Orlando\u2019s thriving food scene.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tickets for this year\u2019s 21-and-up Brunch in the Park are on sale online now<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n
