2017 Taste of Downtown Cortland

Posted by  //  June 19, 2017  //  Festivals, News

The July 8 Taste of Downtown is Cortland County’s signature summer event. The festival showcases downtown’s diverse assortment of cuisines through a self-guided tasting tour and friendly restaurant competition. Mix 2 parts of meetup with friends with 1 part music, 1 part food, and a dash of drink and you have a winning Taste of Downtown Cortland recipe. Speaking of winning recipes, competition has grown fierce between restaurants, now that a multi-media promotional opportunity and cash prize have been added to the trophy awarded to the top-voted sample. Last year, the 5 highest-ranked entries were featured in a local television segment. The event has grown in scale and a new menu of entertainment aims to enhance the festival experience and encourage people to return to discover more – to experience a whole set of music, the complete dining experience, to fully explore the shops and boutiques. Online ticket packages for Taste of Downtown will be available June 26 – July 7 at www.hdc.yapsody.com In-person cash or check purchases may be madeJuly 3-8 (until sold out or 1;00pm) at Cortland Beer Company, LLC., 16 Court Street, and The Local Food Market & Cafe, 37 North Main St., in Cortland. $15 ticket packages include a tasting guide and map, 20 food sample tickets, 3 adult beverage sample tickets, and a commemorative pilsner tasting glass to the first 500 customers.
