Get your culture and your culinary fix at this year’s Feastival, a food extravaganza benefiting FringeArts and its 16-day Fringe Festival, which kicks off this week.

Dozens of Philly’s top chefs will lay out a gourmet spread, while the drinks flow and Fringe artists perform. Restauranteurs Stephen Starr, Michael Solomonov and Audrey Claire Taichman will host.

Tickets are steep, at $250 for regular admission and $350 for VIP, but it’s for a good cause. And you can make it your mission to consume a few hundred dollars’ worth of delicious treats: With restaurants like Morimoto, Zahav and Sbraga participating, that shouldn’t be too hard.

Feastival 2013
Sept. 12, 7-10 p.m. (VIP starts at 6 p.m.)
Pier 9, 121 N. Columbus Blvd.
