Hosted by the Punta Gorda Rotary Club Foundation with Presenting "Iron Chef" Sponsor Publix Supermarkets, the Taste features leading restaurants from Punta Gorda and nearby communities serving “tastes” of signature dishes. Additionally, some 60 arts, crafts, and non-profits will participate; there will be a 50-50 drawing and a Rotary Village featuring Rotary's many humanitarian and charitable projects. There will be a special Fun Kids’ Zone and musical entertainment all day, featuring the BoogieMen and the Charlotte High School Silver King Jazz Band! VIP seating in the shade is available. All proceeds go to the Punta Gorda Rotary Foundation and support local charities and nonprofit groups and international humanitarian projects.
