Scottsdale Culinary Festival: This year marks the 25th Anniversary of the Scottsdale Culinary Festival. Gourmet food takes center stage April 10-13, 2003. Four days packed with delicious events where wineries, chefs, celebrities, locals and tourists alike gather together for a culinary extravaganza. It’s hard to imagine a better time or place - from orange blossoms and beautiful weather to fiery sunsets and the best chefs in the Southwest - it’s the perfect escape for a weekend of entertainment and incredible cuisine. Here, raising a fork and toasting a glass of wine goes a lot deeper. The Scottsdale League for the Arts has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for arts and education programs benefiting underprivileged children throughout the Valley of the Sun. Fundraising is the driving force behind this four-day event and this year, the 25th celebration, Scottsdale League for the Arts attracts celebrity chefs, and local and national media in order to raise record amounts for the charity. But this is not your typical fundraiser. From fresh air and incredible cuisine to live entertainment - all your senses will be stimulated. Scottsdale is your culinary destination with eight distinct events to taste and sip your way through: April 10th, Hall of Fame Dinner and Students Culinary Competition. This award-filled evening honors those who have made significant contributions to the culinary profession in Arizona and showcases award-winning culinary students from Culinary Programs across the nation, Hyatt Regency at Gainey Ranch, cost $100.

Le Tour Culinaire takes guests on a coach tour to three different restaurants for a sampling of cuisine created to impress. Each course is paired with a prominent wine and the winemaker will travel with you on your tour.
