Here are photos from Bethesda Magazine’s 2018 “Best of Bethesda Party,” which was held Wednesday night at the Hyatt Regency Bethesda.

More than 650 people sampled food from 21 Best of Bethesda-winning restaurants and danced to music by Justin Trawick and The Common Good. The annual party drew its largest crowd ever.

Rockville’s Haley Skarupa, a member of the U.S. women’s ice hockey team that won a gold medal during the Winter Olympics, signed autographs and posed for pictures.

PenFed Credit Union was the title sponsor. Other sponsors were Palisades of Bethesda; Porsche, Bethesda; Vision Care and Brookfield Properties. 

Proceeds from the party benefited Special Olympics of Maryland.
