What’s not to love about a classic burger, a simple but delicious pizza, or a breakfast burrito? Good food is good food, no matter what. But that’s not exactly why you’ll want to check out Great American Foodie Fest. You’ll wanna go, so you can try Asian-Hawaii fusion, delicious Birria tacos, or beaauuutiful lobster. This is a food festival, but it’s also much more – it’s the place that gathers America’s best food trucks, and brings them to you. Great American Foodie Fest takes place in Vegas between May 9-11, 2025, at Desert Breeze Park. The entry fee is just $10.
Expect to see combinations you never thought of, such as lumpia buckets (let’s call them salads – counts, right?), the most decadent deserts made of cotton candy, pasta cones, or honey combs hollowed all the way through and filled with ice-cream. The expectations are high when it comes to this fest, as it’s been named Best of Las Vegas multiple times, and has even been part of the Top 10 Food Festivals in America. Two things are clear: you’ll find something you’ll absolutely love, and this isn’t the place-to-be while on a diet.
Besides the inventive food options you’ll explore, you can expect an overall fun atmosphere for the whole family. Expect DJs that play all genres, dancers, a break-dance competition, live pop-rock local bands, and more. For the brave, there’s even an eating contest! But, just in case you’re a bit too full after everything you’ve tried…simply head to the cocktails and beer garden, for a chill spot to enjoy the vibes. The little ones will have a great time too, with carnival rides around at every corner.
It costs just $10 to access America’s best and most unusual food trucks, and you can re-enter at any point during the 3 days. For food, each vendor sets their own pricing. Wanna try it all? Go for the VIP Tasting. It’s $60, and it gets you an item from 12 vendors, which may not be on their original, public menu. Pretty exciting!
