TASTE Leesburg Event Canceled

The annual downtown celebration of  “the flavors of Leesburg” has been canceled due to public health concerns.

Leesburg, VA (July 1, 2020) – The Town of Leesburg’s 3rd annual downtown TASTE Leesburg event has been canceled due to concerns over the coronavirus pandemic.

“Given the commitments to vendors and performers that we need to make now, we have made the decision to cancel TASTE Leesburg,” said Rich Williams, Leesburg’s Director of Parks & Recreation. “This event does not lend itself to the social distancing protocols we anticipate will remain in place through the end of summer. We are disappointed, of course, but feel that it is in the best interest of the health and safety of the community. We look forward to bringing this event back in the summer of 2021.”
