The Columbus Commons is the perfect venue to capture the energy of our city...we are expecting over 10,000 in attendance plus more vendors than ever!”

Ohio Bacon Fest, co-presented by MikeGallicchioNow and Prime Social Group, serves up the trifecta of beloved regional restaurants and food trucks, live entertainment, and refreshing beverage options to the public for what has turned into a 10,000+ annually attended event.
