No. 1 — The Pavilion
The festival is divided into two parts: The Pavilion and The Tasting Tour. On day one, guests will pick up their Tasting Passports at The Gateway and decide if they want to start the event by enjoying tastings, and the VIP section, at the pavilion or explore the downtown Tasting Tour. Ticket holders will enjoy tastings from more than 30 exclusive restaurants and live music performed by Changing Lanes.
No. 2 —The VIP Area
VIP ticket holders have access to an additional 15 restaurants and bars inside the beautiful VIP building next to the fountain.VIP guests will also enjoy a private terrace and lounge area overlooking the festival, exclusive cocktails and private bathrooms.
No. 3 —The Tasting Tour
Many downtown restaurants participate in Tastemakers on their own premises. One of the most fun parts of Tastemakers is going from restaurant to restaurant to sample food and wine. Guests can stroll or use our convenient hop-on hop-off bus to take them on the downtown Tasting Tour. The bus starts at the Gateway and passes the participating restaurants every 15 minutes. Some of the restaurants include: Ruth’s Chris, Market Street Grill and Squatters.
