My Nana's Best Tasting Salsa Challenge, presented by Arizona Bleeding Disorders, is a highly anticipated annual event in Phoenix, AZ. With a history dating back to 1985, this salsa challenge brings together salsa enthusiasts from all walks of life to taste over 100 freshly made salsas, enjoy live music, and participate in the famous Margarita Mix-Off. Contestants can enter their salsas in three distinct categories, and a panel of professional and celebrity judges determine the winner of the $1,000 grand prize. This event serves as the largest annual fundraiser for Arizona Bleeding Disorders, supporting vital programs, services, advocacy, and education for the bleeding disorder community.

Located at Sloan Park, the Spring Training home of the Chicago Cubs, the My Nana's Best Tasting Salsa Challenge offers both general admission and VIP ticket options. General admission tickets include unlimited chips and salsa samples, entry into the Margarita Mix-Off live auction, and are available for $15 in advance or $20 at the door. VIP tickets, priced at $75 per person, provide access to a private VIP area, a delicious catered meal, unlimited chips and salsa samples, and various additional perks. This event is a must-attend for salsa lovers and those looking to support a worthy cause in the bleeding disorder community.
