The Epic Outdoor Food Fest In Ohio You Simply Cannot Miss
If you’re a food festival lover, there’s an epic one happening in central Ohio this summer you simply cannot afford to miss.
Over the past few years, the Columbus Food Truck Festival has steadily grown in its number of attendees and—more importantly—food trucks. It’s now the largest food truck festival in the Midwest and we couldn’t be more grateful. Imagine all your favorite Ohio foods and eateries in one place. (It’s a pretty beautiful picture isn’t it?)

Previously, the Columbus Food Truck Festival took place at Columbus Commons. This year's festival will take over Bicentennial Park, Scioto Mile and the Rich Street Bridge on August 18 - 19.
The best part? Entry to the festival is FREE and it takes place nearly all day on Friday and Saturday, form 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. each day. Mark your calendars.
Food trucks line the sidewalks, making it a foodie's paradise. <3
If you bring the kids along, be sure to check out the Kids Fun Day from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday in Genoa Park.
The 2017 festival will also feature live music on the Bicentennial Park Stage and a second stage, located on Washington Street on the west side of the river.
Nothing beats a weekend full of food, family fun and live music, right?
