2026 Taste of Lawrence

For over 40 years, Taste of Lawrence has been held annually to honor our local educators and showcase some of our community's finest food and beverage establishments.

Always a great time, the event is aptly named as those in attendance are truly offered a taste of the Lawrence community.

Based on overwhelming survey results of 2025 attendees, Taste of Lawrence will remain later in the fall with more vendors! Here's what some 2025 attendees had to say:
►"I think the change was great!!  It was not unbearably hot and there was more space for more vendors.  Plus, plenty of parking!"
►"We have been attending for years. The new venue was so much more enjoyable!"
►"I felt like there was so much room for everyone and it wasn't hot. The space was perfect and excited for next year. Thank you for always making this event so fun."
►"Great Space, Great Lighting, Great Vendors. Solid footing, great parking. "
