Taste of Ravenswood

Taste of Ravenswood returns again on February 6th, 2026! We're bringing you the neighborhood's top restaurants, brewers, and spirit makers for a fantastic, one-night-a-year experience. Each chef will offer dishes that highlight the range of flavors you can find in Ravenswood, and each brewery/distillery will be pouring drinks that are made right here in our beautiful neighborhood.

Enjoy delicious bites and sips, live music, live painting by Alexandra Stevenson, and explore a private collection of vintage neon signs and classic cars while admiring beautiful florals by The Flower Girl Company. Consider also joining us for our Atrium Cocktail Hour, an exclusive hour in the gorgeous Ravenswood Event Center Atrium. You’ll sample alcoholic and spirit-free cocktails from Long Room and small bites from Spacca Napoli. The hour also features an intimate music performance supported by Rendezvous Arts. Enjoy all of this while getting a beautiful view of the neighborhood from the Ravenswood Event Center Atrium space. Atrium Cocktail hour tickets are limited, so be sure to get yours before they sell out!

Take advantage of our Early Bird ticket pricing until December 31st, 2025 at 11:59pm! Full ticket pricing will go into effect on January 1st, 2026.
