The Original Taste in Scottsdale, Arizona
The Original Taste, an Arizona food and beverage celebration, returns to the Scottsdale Waterfront in the heart of Old Town Scottsdale, Arizona, April 28, 2018.
The event brings together more than 40 of the Valley’s restaurants, more than 100 wines from around the world, select brands of beer and premium spirits, and entertainment — all in support of local youth charities.
The Original Taste begins at 7 p.m. (although VIP ticket holders are invited to attend the VIP after party from 10 p.m. to midnight). Early-bird general admission is $75 per ticket prior to March 15, then $125 after. VIP tickets begin at $225 per ticket prior to March 15, then increase to $275.
The Original Taste, which began in 1975, is presented by the members of Executive Council 70 and benefits Executive Council Charities (ECC). Proceeds from the Original Taste help fund 125 youth-based charities in Arizona including Phoenix Children’s Hospital, Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale, Ryan House, Foundation for Blind Children, Ronald McDonald House Charities, Jewish Family & Children’s Service, Sojourner Center, New Pathways for Youth, UMOM New Day Centers, and Child Crisis Arizona.
Even though it benefits kids, this is a 21-and-older-only event.
