The Partnership Presents the 2018 All-Star Tasting


We will host our 2018 All-Star Tasting on Wednesday, May 16 at New York City’s own Riverpark – a Tom Colicchio restaurant. The All-Star Tasting brings together all-star chefs and athletes for an exciting night filled with culinary delights and fun challenges. Most importantly, it raises critical funds to ensure we can continue to serve families across the country who are struggling with a loved one’s substance use.

The All-Star Tasting will kick off at 6:30 p.m. with a “Meet, Greet & Eat” for guests who purchase a VIP ticket. Promptly beginning at 7:00 p.m., all attendees are invited to partake in the main event and enjoy appetizing samples from several tasting stations, including: Riverpark, Bona Bona Ice Cream, Craft, Temple Court, Insomnia Cookies and Talde.

We are proud to feature Legends at Yankee Stadium as our special culinary spotlight this year.

The All-Star Tasting will also feature a lively, silent auction and all attendees, as well as online bidders, are encouraged to participate. Unique auction items include New York Mets and New York Yankees tickets, signed memorabilia from fan-favorite athletes like Jeremy Lin, Mats Zuccarello and “Mr. October” Reggie Jackson. Bidders could also have the chance to be the lucky winner of tickets to the New York Food and Wine Festival, a limited edition POPSUGAR gift box and so much more!

The event will benefit and support the Partnership’s important work and proceeds will help provide families with the tools they need to take effective action around their child’s substance use, including free resources like our Parent Helpline, peer-to-peer parent coaching services and online tools and support.
