September 10, 2016 A Taste Of Downtown

Sarasota Opera’s 3rd Annual Food & Wine Festival.

On Saturday, September 10, 2016, Sarasota Opera will open its doors for the 3rd annual Taste of Downtown Food & Wine Festival at the Sarasota Opera House. Consistently a sell-out event, the Taste of Downtown Festival is a fundraiser for the Sarasota Youth Opera.

“This event has become a wonderful way for the downtown community to come together and highlight some of what makes Sarasota so special,” says Executive Director Richard Russell. “We are grateful for the continued support of our downtown neighbors, sponsors, and patrons who have made this such an enjoyable way to help us impact the lives of thousands of young people.”

In its two-year history, Taste of Downtown has raised more than $28,000 to support the most comprehensive youth opera program in the United States. Attendees are invited to enjoy culinary treats, fine wines, and craft beers provided by some of Sarasota’s most popular eateries and lounges spread amongst the unique setting of the historic Sarasota Opera House. Each attendee will receive a custom designed wine glass upon check-in. Guests will also be treated to a performance by members of the Sarasota Youth Opera.

Tickets are $65 per person if purchased in advance and $75 per person if purchased the day of the event. Tickets are available now online at www.sarasotaopera.org/taste.aspx [1] or through the Sarasota Opera Box Office at (941) 328-1300.
