A Night to Savor
Guests will enjoy tastings from over 40+ local chefs and 20+ beverage purveyors, including craft cocktails, wine, spirits, and brews. From Louisville’s iconic restaurants to its newest culinary stars, The Taste offers a delicious cross-section of the city’s vibrant hospitality scene.
The evening kicks off with a welcome cocktail or mocktail, followed by live music from Hickory Vaught, a DJ spinning crowd favorites, and photo ops to capture the memories. It’s more than just a tasting event — it’s a celebration of community, creativity, and compassion.
Giving Back with Every Bite
This year’s event proudly benefits Feed Louisville, a local nonprofit that rescues surplus food and transforms it into chef-prepared meals for unhoused and food-insecure neighbors. “Feed Louisville is where food rescue meets hunger relief,” said a spokesperson. “Every ticket helps us serve more meals and support more lives.”
