Must-visit food festivals in the US in 2025

T here's something about good food that stops time for a second. A bite of something familiar, a sip of something new, the kind of meals that remind you of home, or take you far from it. In a world that moves fast and changes constantly, food remains one of the most universal ways we connect. Across the U.S., cities and communities are rolling out tables, firing up grills, and setting the stage for food festivals that are as much about people as they are about plates. Whether you're in it for the bold flavors, the stories behind every dish, or just the joy of trying something new with people who love food as much as you do—there's a festival waiting to welcome you.
