The Somerville Chamber of Commerce has announced the date and a new location for the 2017 Taste of Somerville. The Taste has been growing in popularity year over year —the last 3 years were sold-out serving over 1,200 guests.

As one of the most impressive food festivals in Greater Boston, the Taste features dozens of outstanding local restaurants, farms, food trucks, and beverage providers. With our move to Nathan Tufts Park this year, the 2017 Taste of Somerville represents a huge step forward in the size of the event - expanding from 40 restaurants to 60+ and up to 2,000 guests - but is also branching out into other creative, entrepreneurial and technological aspects of the best the city has to offer, including demonstrations from Greentown Labs and Artisan Asylum, artistic installations, and entertainment for adults and children alike including a pop-up playground and lawn games.

Proceeds from the 2017 Taste support an exceptional pair of local non-profit organizations. The Somerville Home has a stellar reputation for providing supportive living arrangements to residents age 50 and older, offering 24-hour nursing care supervision and programs to foster personal well-being, money management, and independence. Walnut Street Center is a human services agency, that provides self-advocacy and community involvement support to some of the city’s most vulnerable citizens.

"We've loved being in the heart of Davis Square the past few years, but the chance to move to this beautiful park space with lots of grass, lawn furniture and rugs to spread out on, plus games and entertainment for children and adults will make it feel like an entirely different event,” says Luke O’Neil, a member of the Taste of Somerville planning committee.

GREAT FOOD

Feast on a bountiful sampling of dishes from Somerville's eclectic dining scene. More than 60 local restaurants and food trucks will be serving their tastiest offerings.

FAMILY FUN

LAWN LOUNGE / ENTERTAINMENT
