Saint Paul’s Taste of Minnesota

The 26th annual Taste of Minnesota, which runs next week from Thursday, July 3, through Sunday, July 6, offers entertainment for all ages.  Combining great music with fantastic food, the ears and tastebuds of many metro residents perk up at the very idea of attending the state’s largest free festival. 

Located at Harriet Island Park and along the Mississippi River in downtown St. Paul, big acts this year include REO Speedwagon, Eddie Money, the Trashmen, Seether, gb Leighton, Cosmo, Badfinger, and more.  There will be fireworks displays at 10:20 p.m. each night. 

“A Taste of Minnesota prides itself on offering free entertainment that combines a variety of musical styles to suit the whole family,” said John Labosky, president of the Capital City Partnership, which owns A Taste of Minnesota.  “This year’s Taste is providing a wider range of acts to satisfy all ages than ever before.  We are looking forward to once again providing great music, delicious food, and family fun.”

Taste of Minnesota originated more than 15 years ago in the area of the State Capitol Mall. The past few years it has been at its Harriet Island location.
