Guy Fieri Offers Free Tickets To Chef Showdown
Fans can watch chefs compete as "Tournament of Champions" tapes in Sonoma County this October.
SONOMA COUNTY, CA — Guy Fieri is giving fans free tickets to watch 32 celebrated chefs battle as he tapes the latest season of “Tournament of Champions."
The celebrity chef and longtime Sonoma County resident hosts the Food Network show, which pits chefs against each other in a single-elimination, sudden-death tournament.
On the show, chefs must create a dish using a protein, a produce item, and a piece of cooking equipment selected by a spinning wheel called the “Randomizer.”

Last season, Bryan Voltaggio took home a massive wrestling belt and $150,000.
