Guests of the Taste of Cambridge will enjoy and have their fill of the diverse and award-winning cuisine for which Cambridge is best known.

  • Entertainment by Darlingside and The Chicken Thieves and DJ Gibbz!
  • A Special “Tasting Ticket” for kids under twelve who are accompanied by a parent. This is a great event for exposing kids to new flavors and foods- it’s hard for even the pickiest kid to resist the incredible offerings in kid friendly sizes! Kids Tasting Tickets are available for $15.00 each for children aged six to twelve and kids under six are free!

The Taste of Cambridge was founded by the Cambridge License Advisory Board (CLAB) and is guided annually by a committee comprised of CLAB members. CLAB works year-round to prevent underage drinking and to educate and support liquor license holders in their efforts to prohibit sales to minors, and to promote respect for Massachusetts liquor license laws.

In addition to being an extraordinary gastronomical event the “Taste of Cambridge” is also a remarkable “Community Event.” Our participating restaurants, sponsors, and volunteers work tirelessly to present the best “Taste of” value so that our attendees return annually, and our beneficiaries receive the most money that can be raised that evening. The Taste of Cambridge has grown in the past eight years to an annual summer event that has raised in excess of a $250,000 for local Cambridge charities.

Tickets for this popular annual event can be purchased for $50 in advance or $60 at the door.  VIP tickets are $75. Tickets are available at www.tasteofcambridge.com. Please join our facebook page!
