The fan-favorite annual Community Chili Cook-Off\, hosted by the Arts Council and the Historical Society of Princeton\, puts their skills to the test. Join us at the beautiful Updike Farmstead on Quaker Road for a good old-fashioned cook-off. Our contestants will serve up tasty samples all afternoon — try them all and cast a vote for your favorite. At 2:30pm\, we’ll present the coveted awards. Make a day of it: there will be 15+ different chilis to try\, but you’re invited to round out your lunch with a picnic (no alcohol\, please!) Participating Pros for our 2026 Cook-Off include Mediterra\, Jammin’ Crepes\, Yankee Doodle Tap Room\, Chef Tom Wu\, and Wood Craft Catering. Treat yourself to our lemonade stand or a deliciously crisp brew from Triumph Brewery\, with a portion of proceeds benefiting ACP + HSP. Live bluegrass music by Sourland Mountain String Band and lawn games will complete this festive fall day on the farm. So\, who will be named Princeton Chili Champion?! You’ll be the judge of that.  \n \n \n WAITLISTWe are officially sold out for the third year in a row and couldn’t be more grateful.Please click below to join our waitlist in the chance that someone cannot make it. \n \n Take a look at last year’s photo album! \n \n \n \n \n \n click here for waitlist\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n CONTESTANT REGISTRATIONParticipant registration has ended.
