The annual Taste of Darlington will take place at Darlington Raceway on Thursday, April 12, from 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. in the track’s Cale Yarborough NASCAR Cup Series Garage.

The annual culinary event benefits the Darlington Downtown Revitalization Association (DDRA) and features some of the best cooks in the area. The event is attended by community members that enjoy great local food and drink.

“We always appreciate our relationship with Darlington Raceway and appreciate them hosting this event annually.
