Scottsdale Culinary Festival
The 35th annual Culinary Festival is set for April 9 through 14, 2013, in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Signature event is the Great Arizona Picnic — a weekend of culinary and beverage tasting experiences on April 13 and 14, 2013. In and around the gardens and fountains of the Civic Mall in downtown Scottsdale, Road Trips Foodies can sample bites from more than 50 Valley restaurants, watch cooking demonstrations from top chefs and enjoy locally crafted music on two stages.
Sixteen of the best chefs and restaurants will compete for the coveted title of 2013 Best Burger in the Valley on April 11, 2013. Those who attend will have the chance to taste and vote for the burger with the best bite.
The festival is the primary fundraiser for the Scottsdale League for the Arts.
