First Annual Taste of Balboa

You're invited to join us on Sunday, April 13 from 11 am-4 pm at Balboa Village for the first Taste of Balboa during the Newport to Ensenada International Yacht Race Kickoff Fiesta. The Taste of Balboa will feature a variety of local restaurants serving up tastes of their signature dishes for sale. There will also be a variety of activities and entertainment for the entire family to enjoy. Bands will be playing throughout the event, and you can get an up close view of some vintage classic cars. A selection of official Newport to Ensenada race boats will be docked by the ferry where you can learn more about some of the crew's preparations for this world-famous event. Children can let their imagination set sail at ExplorOcean by building model boats and trying their hands at engaging, ocean-related activities. The chalk artists from the renowned La Strada dell'arte will transform Balboa Village sidewalks into works of art. The First Annual Taste of Balboa will be located in the heart of Balboa Village at the corner of Balboa Blvd. and Palm St. in Newport Beach.
