Columbus chosen for National Pickle Palooza Festival

Mary McCarthy

Get excited—Columbus has been chosen for the next stop of the Pickle Palooza Food & Drink Fest. The festival is coming to Huntington Park on Saturday, June 27th. The first stop of the pickle tour in Grand Rapids, MI, sold out in 3 hours and had record interest. That being said, if you’re a pickle fan we advise signing up for the priority list here to get first access to tickets.

Here’s what you can expect at the festival:

  • Dill-icious Samples: enjoy a huge variety of unique pickle-themed food samples from local vendors—ranging from deep-fried pickles to pickle pizza and more.

  • Live Music & Entertainment: featuring an All-American Throwback Pop Punk/Emo Party Band, a live “DJ Dilly” show, and high-energy musical performances.
  • Mechanical Pickle Riding & Games: engage in fun activities, including Pickle Eating Contests, Brine Chugging challenges, and more.
