Taste of Bethesda returns on Saturday, October 11, 2014 from 11am-4pm and will bring more than 50 restaurants and five stages of entertainment to Bethesda’s Woodmont Triangle. Produced by the Bethesda Urban Partnership, downtown Bethesda’s famous food and music festival celebrates 25 years of diverse and delectable cuisine offered by Bethesda’s local restaurant community.

Taste of Bethesda will be located on Norfolk, St. Elmo, Cordell, Del Ray and Auburn Avenues. Five stages showcasing musical and cultural performances, and a children’s area featuring art and craft activities, balloons and face painting will provide additional entertainment for young visitors.

Admission to Taste of Bethesda is free. Tickets will be sold on-site to “taste” different foods; tickets are $5 for four tickets and a serving costs one to four tickets. The event is located three blocks from the Bethesda Metro station. Free parking is also available in downtown Bethesda’s public garages. The free Bethesda Circulator will transport visitors to and from the Bethesda Metro station and public garages.

*Taste of Bethesda is held rain or shine.*
