The Lower East Side is full of culture, cuisine, and energy - celebrate it at The Taste of LES Food & Drink Festival! This annual benefit brings together endless drinks, exquisite food, and joyous revelry starting at 8:30pm on Wednesday May 18, 2022.
Grab your $89 Taste After Dark Ticket (a $150 value) that gets you admission to this exclusive soirée, plus access to a 3 Hour Premium Open Bar, and Tastings of Dishes from the fabulous participating Market Line vendors.
Celebrating its 20th anniversary, the annual fête is hosted this year at Essex Market, which is the perfect hub for indulgence! You'll taste fare from neighborhood eateries like Ample Hills Creamery, Slice Joint, Nom Wah, Pickle Guys, Tortilleria Nixtamal, and then some, all while raising money for Grand St. Settlement.
The DJ will play the hits while you feast on signatures dishes such as Nom Wah’s Chicken and Cabbage Dumplings with toasted sesame sauce, Tortilleria Nixtamal's corn esquites, and more, taking a break to imbibe on libations made using top-notch tipples - we're talking Komos Tequila, Tito’s, Macari Vineyards, and Pinhook Bourbon, just to name a few.
Come hungry, come thirsty, come ready to elevate your hump day for a great cause...
This year, The Taste of Lower East Side Food & Drink Festival returns to one of the most beloved neighborhoods in the city for an intimate celebration of their 20th Anniversary.

Since 2000, Taste of the Lower East Side has raised over $5 million to support New York families.
Your ticket gets you into the Taste After Dark, which keeps the party going so you can eat, drink, and even dance! Devour fare from Best Damn Cookies, Cafe Grumpy, Nom Wah, Pickle Guys, Que Chevere, Salon Sucre, Southeast Asian Market, and Veselka, boogying to the sounds of a live DJ.
