The country’s longest running culinary arts festival returns, with a record number of food vendors and musical acts.

“This year’s Taste of Cincinnati is poised to be our most vibrant celebration of Cincinnati’s culinary scene yet,” said Chelsea York, vice president of events and experiences of the Cincinnati Regional Chamber. “The creativity and passion we’ve witnessed from our vendors during the competition has been nothing short of extraordinary.”

Taste of Cincinnati is a community tradition that celebrates foods and local musical talents of the Greater Cincinnati region. The 2025 festival features a spread of unique vendors—from food trucks to brick-and-mortar restaurants—offering dishes from all the cuisines that make up Cincinnati’s delicious and diverse food scene. Find the full list of vendors on Taste of Cincinnati’s website here.

There are over 60 vendors that will be serving up all kinds of cuisines, from food trucks to brick-and-mortar restaurants. There will also be more than a dozen musical acts appearing on several stages throughout one festival..

The “Best of Taste” competition was held earlier this month, with vendors demonstrating their cooking expertise for judges hailing from local media personalities, social media influencers, community leaders and government officials.

“From traditional Cincinnati favorites to bold international flavors, this year’s festival truly captures the evolving palate of our dynamic city,” said York. “We can’t wait for everyone to experience the culinary journey we’ve curated!'“
