All proceeds from the event will benefit World Central Kitchen, José Andrés’ international non-profit that focuses on smart solutions to hunger and poverty.

From 6 PM - 10 PM, event-goers will walk through the city’s Penn Quarter and 14th Street neighborhoods, enjoying food, drink and music at all of the participating restaurants.
