The longest-ever charcuterie board will serve 1,200 individuals, and there will be a selection of beer and wine.
In addition, there will be a day of free entertainment, music, and activities provided by local businesses and organizations in the Grand Chief Bernard Robert Charles Memorial Plaza.
Tickets became available as of Thursday, June 1, with four time slots avialable for purchase; prices range between $89 and $189 for the VIP experience.
