Uncorked: Mount Pleasant’s Food & Wine Festival

Uncorked is the Mount Pleasant–Titus County Chamber of Commerce’s annual food and wine festival, held at Caldwell Park. The event brings together Texas wineries, local restaurants, food trucks, and live music in a setting that feels like a genuine community gathering rather than a corporate tasting event. For a county that doesn’t have a downtown wine bar on every corner, Uncorked is the kind of event that shows you the area has more cultural texture than a real estate listing might suggest.

The 2026 event

The 2026 Uncorked Food & Wine Festival was held on Saturday, April 4, 2026, at Caldwell Park in Mount Pleasant. The event featured wine tastings from Texas wineries, food from local restaurants and vendors, and live music throughout the afternoon.

What to expect

Uncorked is an afternoon event, typically running on a Saturday in early April. The format is straightforward: local and regional wineries pour tastings, food vendors serve from booths and trucks, and live music plays on a stage or designated area. Attendees walk the grounds, sample wine and food, and settle in for the music. It’s family-friendly, casual, and priced well below what a comparable event would cost in Dallas or Austin.

The festival is one of several community events the Chamber organizes throughout the year, but it’s the one that tends to draw people from outside the county. For anyone visiting the area or evaluating the property, it’s a good snapshot of what the local social scene looks like in the spring.

Getting there

Caldwell Park is in Mount Pleasant, a ten-minute drive from the property on County Road 1070. The festival takes over a section of the park, with parking available nearby. It’s the kind of event where you can walk from your car to the first tasting in two minutes, spend the afternoon, and drive home in the same amount of time it took to get there.

For anyone spending time in Titus County, Uncorked is a good sign. It means the community invests in events that bring people together around food and drink, not just agriculture and commerce. The Texas wine scene has grown significantly in the past decade, and events like this are how smaller towns stay connected to it.
