A Taste of Marietta: 30 Years of Flavor, Fun, and Community on April 27th, 2025

Spring in Marietta means one thing—Taste of Marietta is back!

This year marks the 30th annual celebration of one of Cobb County’s most beloved festivals, and I’m thrilled to share that I’ve been invited to serve as a judge for this year’s event!

As someone who works, eats, and plays in Marietta, it’s an absolute honor to take part in a tradition that brings our community together through flavor.

📅 Sunday, April 27 | Historic Marietta Square
🍴 Admission: Free | Food Tastings: $2–$10

More than 70 local restaurants, caterers, and food trucks will take over the Marietta Square with bites ranging from Southern staples to creative culinary twists. Whether you’re a long-time local or just exploring the area, it’s the perfect chance to taste the best Cobb County has to offer in one delicious afternoon.

But it’s not just about the food! Here’s what else to expect:

• 🎶 Live music across five stages (don’t miss the sunset concert in Glover Park!)
• 🍻 Glover Park Brewery as the official beer of Taste 2025—find them in the Beer Gardens!
• 🍳 Live cooking demos with local chefs
• 🎈 Kid’s Alley with games and inflatables
• 🏈 A lively Sports Corner
• 🚚 A wide variety of food trucks

Whether you’re in it for the flavors, the family fun, or to support the amazing local businesses that keep Marietta vibrant, Taste of Marietta is one Sunday you won’t want to miss. Rain or shine—we’ll be there, napkins in hand and appetites ready.

I’ll be roaming the Square as part of the judging team—if you spot me, say hi! 👋🏼
Let’s raise a fork to 30 years of community, cuisine, and local love.
