Taste buds at the ready, TBAY.

Wednesday, April 16, marks the return of Taste of Water Street — a one-night food fest dedicated to all things delicious.

Water Street will be closed to cars, allowing 21+ attendees to stroll and sample curated bites and refreshing sips from more than 20 neighborhood spots.

And did we mention the lively live music?

Psst: Tickets nearly doubled from last year due to (extremely) high demand, so we recommend snagging yours while you can.

One night of yum
