Bite of Bandon 2026: A Record-Breaking Success

The 13th Annual Bite of Bandon, held on February 28, 2026, was an incredible success and our most impactful event to date. With nearly 200 attendees and an amazing lineup of local restaurants and vendors, the evening was filled with energy, community spirit, and unforgettable flavors.

Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and participating businesses, this year’s event raised over $35,000—making it the most successful Bite of Bandon in our history.

Guests enjoyed tasting a wide variety of dishes while casting votes for crowd favorites, with awards presented for Best Sweet Bite, Best Savory Bite, and Best Display. The night also featured a lively silent and live auction, filled with unique and locally donated items that brought the community together in support of our youth.

Most importantly, every dollar raised goes directly back into the Bandon Community Youth Center, supporting our after-school programs, summer camps, and ongoing efforts to provide a safe, enriching space for local children and families.

We are beyond grateful to everyone who made this event possible. Bite of Bandon continues to grow each year, and this record-breaking success is a true reflection of the incredible support behind our mission.
