A Taste of AZ Food and Drink Festival

Mark your calendars and join us for "A Taste of AZ Food and Drink Festival" on January 25, 2025. Don't miss this opportunity to embark on a remarkable culinary adventure in the heart of Arizona's winter wonderland.
The Valley’s best top local chefs, restaurateurs, winemakers, brewers & distillers come together for this intimate food and drink festival.

 Situated on Salt River Fields’ Centerfield Plaza, this elevated food & drink festival pairs flavors from across the Grand Canyon State with a spectacular setting overlooking the baseball stadium, and is backdropped by the scenic McDowell Mountains. Hosted from 2:00 – 5 pm (or 1 – 5 pm for VIP ticket holders), enjoy food samples and more from dozens of local chefs and restaurants, plus live music, cooking demos, and of course, drinks and beverages from Arizona’s top wineries, breweries, distilleries and more.

Even tastier, all tickets to A Taste of AZ Food and Drink Festival presented by Talking Stick Resort will include unlimited food samples, plus 15 drink samples (beer, wine & cocktails), and free parking. Or upgrade to VIP for early event access, and 2 complimentary tickets to a Spring Training game at Salt River Fields in 2025.
 
The A Taste of AZ Food and Drink Festival presented by Talking Stick Resort also brings back its charity component this year. The Joy Bus will be the nonprofit beneficiary of the festival. The Joy Bus was founded in 2011 by award-winning chef, Jennifer Caraway. Their sole purpose is to relieve the daily struggles of people with cancer by delivering a fresh and healthy meal with a friendly face.
