Feast Festival was founded in Portland, Oregon, in 2012 as a way to celebrate the unique cuisine of our little corner of the Pacific Northwest. From amazing seafood to Tillamook dairy, marionberry pie to tater tots, delicious wines to Beaver State brews, the cuisine that defines Oregon is something to be exalted — and enjoyed! And that’s precisely what Feast Festival is: an annual food festival that’s a true celebration of Oregon.

Editor’s Note: Since this article was first published, the organizers of Feast Festival had to make the difficult decision to postpone the event until 2023. In the meantime, we recommend checking out some of the great restaurants that participate in this amazing PDX festival!

Food isn’t just something that nourishes the body. It’s something that feeds the soul. It’s a way of connecting disparate cultures and histories in a shared, communal experience.
