The Great Chefs Event Philadelphia, hosted by Marc Vetri, brings together esteemed chefs from across the country to create gourmet tasting plates for all attendees. Held at the Urban Outfitters Headquarters in the Philadelphia Navy Yard, this unique event is changing to a family-friendly, daytime format this year.
There will still be the same level of decadent dishes and dazzling drinks for everyone to enjoy, but now kids can be a part of the fun too! Everyone 12 and under gets in free that day. Take a summer Saturday afternoon and come sample spectacular cuisine to help benefit the fight against childhood cancer.
Last year, more than 40 spectacular chefs and over 1,000 attendees packed into the Urban Outfitters headquarters for an event full of delectable dining and generous donations. We hope to see you there this June!
