This year’s A Taste of the Southside was a huge success! The competition was fierce, with the American Booth squeaking past the German Booth by just an elephant ear or two to claim the championship title! 

Think your family has what it takes to win over the crowd next year? Join us at Mayfest 2027 and let festival-goers cast their votes for their favorite flavors and traditions!

We’re looking for families interested in representing a cultural booth for 2027. We’ll provide the food — you bring the recipes, heritage, and festive spirit! Please contact Julie Garcia at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
