Taste of Pearl
 

Sunday, April 17 | 2 - 6PM | Pearl Street Mall

Taste of Pearl takes participants on a culinary sojourn around downtown Boulder. Each Boulder restaurant will create a decadent sample-sized offering and will be paired with a Colorado winery. What makes Taste of Pearl unique is that each tasting takes place in a downtown boutique or gallery. Participants will receive a map at check-in that will guide them on this epicurean adventure. (Pairings will be revealed the day of the event at check in.) Don't wait, tickets are likely to sell out prior to the event!

Buy tickets ($65 / $75 VIP)

Taste of Pearl depends on over 60 wonderful volunteers to make the event run smoothly.
