Atlanta, GA – May 23, 2024 — Don't forget to mark your calendars for the eagerly awaited comeback of Taste of Buckhead, Atlanta's top-tier food and beverage sampling affair presented by the Buckhead Business Association (BBA), happening on October 17th. Get ready to indulge your palate with endless tastings of Buckhead's finest culinary offerings and drinks.
"We've reached our 19th year, and we're absolutely thrilled for the upcoming event," shares Rizwan Peera, former BBA president and the driving force behind Taste of Buckhead for the past four years. "Taste of Buckhead offers an exceptional chance for restaurants, beverage brands, and businesses in the Buckhead area to forge connections with fresh audiences. And for those who love tasting new foods and drinks, this is the essential event of the season."
The upcoming Taste of Buckhead will uphold its charitable tradition with the "Spirit Wall." Guests will be able to buy tickets for a chance to win donated bottles of wine or spirits, with all proceeds going towards Bert's Big Adventure. Bert’s Big Adventure is a registered nonprofit dedicated to creating enchanting, fully funded, five-day trips to Walt Disney World® for children grappling with chronic and terminal illnesses and their families.
After the yearly excursion, Bert’s Big Adventure offers ongoing assistance through endeavors like Family Reunion Adventures, the Fairy Godparent volunteer initiative, and other charitable efforts. These experiences not only foster a sense of community among families but also cultivate enduring friendships among those confronting similar hurdles.
Peera adds, "Each year, we are deeply honored to back a fresh organization devoted to bettering our community. The BBA remains resolute in its commitment to philanthropy and eagerly looks forward to channeling the proceeds from our Spirit Wall towards the remarkable endeavors of Bert’s Big Adventure this year.”
For those interested in donating bottles of wine or spirits for the Spirit Wall to benefit Bert’s Big Adventure, please contact the Taste of Buckhead committee at tasteofbuckhead@buckheadbusiness.org.
