Taste of Syracuse

About

Taste of Syracuse is the annual food and music festival that kicks off summer festival season in and around Clinton Square, in downtown Syracuse. It brings together food and music from across Central New York, and it has become a signature opener to the summer calendar downtown.

It has been billed as Central New York’s largest and fastest-growing food and music festival, with more than 225,000 visitors counted at the 2018 edition. Clinton Square, the old Erie Canal hub in downtown Syracuse, gives the event a central, walkable home.
