Taste of Ravenswood

February 6th, 2026

An evening of handcrafted bites and sips in the heart of Ravenswood

Taste of Ravenswood is returning again in 2026! We’re bringing you the neighborhood’s top restaurants, brewers, and spirit makers for a fantastic, one-night-a-year experience.


Enjoy delicious bites and sips, live music by the amazing duo of pianist Casey Cross and bassist Jeffrey Parker, live painting by Ravenswood artist 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, a food and beverage pairing from Cultivate by Forbidden Root, and small bites from Spacca Napoli. The hour also features an intimate music performance by modern guitar virtuoso Fareed Haque, generously 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 guests will also receive a limited-run Ravenswood-themed letterpress print from Starshaped Press. Atrium Cocktail hour tickets are limited, so be sure to get yours before they sell out!


Bring family, friends, and coworkers out for an evening sampling the best that Ravenswood has to offer. Ticketholders can enjoy the Atrium Cocktail Hour from 6:30pm to 7:30pm, and General Admission will be located in the beautiful Ravenswood Event Center Billboard Showroom from 7:30pm to 10:00pm.
