Five local companies will be providing the food and drinks at the America’s Cup Village.

Rosa’s Cantina, Bermuda Pie Company, JB’s Woodfired Pizza and Smokin Barrel have been selected for their food specialities, while Docksiders Pub has been awarded the public bar concession.

Chris Garland, America’s Cup Public Food & Beverage Concessions Manager, said: “These businesses bid on a tender for this opportunity and were chosen on their business strength and their ability to provide continuous quality service to a high volume of people daily, for a 5-week period.

“This will be a demanding time on their business and their staff and they have demonstrated that they are up for the task. It was important for us to also provide a wide selection of food choices for fans attending the America’s Cup Village, and even more variety will be available, with the snack and festival food vendors to be announced soon.

“These vendors will do us proud, rising to the challenge and ramping up from Bermuda’s local daily demand to an international standard, serving thousands of ticket holders on any given day at peak times.”

America’s Cup Village ticket holders will enjoy a range of varied activities and interesting interactive things to do, before and after racing. Tickets online can be bought through www.americascup.com/tickets.
