In 2008, Festival Founder and Director Lee Brian Schrager of Southern Wine & Spirits of America, launched the inaugural Food Network New York City Wine & Food Festival.

The first annual Festival consisted of more than 80 events. The second and third annual Festivals in 2009 and 2010 grew to more than 120 events held throughout the Meatpacking District and beyond. Festival events ranged from extravagant walk-around tastings like the Burger Bash, SWEET and the Grand Tasting, to culinary demonstrations and educational wine and food pairing seminars led by the industry's biggest names, to kids-oriented interactive cooking experiences and, local events incorporating the businesses in the host neighborhood, the Meatpacking District.
