Vienna restaurants will gather in one place for the 13th annual Taste of Vienna on April 25, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The free event will take over the back parking lot of the Vienna Volunteer Fire Department at 400 Center St. South in Vienna. Attendees can purchase food samples directly from participating vendors.

The festival will also feature a beer and wine tent, live music, children’s activities and the second annual Carnegie Diner OMG 24-layer cake-eating contest.

Proceeds will benefit the Vienna Volunteer Fire Department, whose members have served the community for more than 120 years. Volunteers protect lives and property in and around the Town of Vienna while also raising money to support and maintain the department’s mission.
