NEW YORK — New York BagelFest, created by BagelUp and presented by King Arthur Baking Co., is returning for the sixth year in a row on Nov. 16 at Citi Field in NYC. This year, the festival has a little something up its sleeve to help transform promising bagel-making concepts into success stories.
The BagelFest Growth Lab, making its debut Nov. 15 from 2-5 p.m., is an incubator for emerging bagel makers to present their products to an audience of industry leaders and professionals. It’s designed as a launchpad for up-and-comers, providing them with direct feedback, mentorship, and connections from King Arthur Baking and the Bread Bakers Guild of America.
Since its inception in 2019, BagelFest has grown into a premier trade show for the bagel industry, bringing together thousands of bagel enthusiasts. Alongside the Growth Lab, the event hosts a range of competitions, including Best Bagel, Most Creative and Best of the Boroughs.
