Get ready, Pittsburgh, TasteBuds is BACK and better than ever!
Best Buddies Pittsburgh is cooking up something truly special with the return of our most delicious event of the year! TasteBuds is where the city's top chefs team up with incredible individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) to serve up their signature dishes, with a side of friendship and heart.
It's a night full of bold bites, tasty sips, and unforgettable moments. Each chef gets a rockstar sous-chef partner, and together they'll create culinary magic you won't want to miss.
But wait there's more! We're spicing things up with the return of Champion of the Year, a fun and friendly competition featuring amazing community leaders going head-to-head in a 10-week campaign to support inclusion. The big winner will be crowned live at TasteBuds!
Expect great food, signature cocktails, live entertainment, a sizzling auction, and above all, support for Best Buddies' life-changing Friendship & Leadership Programs.
Come hungry. Leave inspired.
Try new flavors. Make new friends!
