The Annual Taste of Mequon will be held Saturday, September 12, 2026, from Noon - 9 p.m. Taste of Mequon was first conceptualized in 2013 as a way to spotlight community restaurants, artists and entertainers while bringing residents and business owners together to showcase all the elements that make Mequon a terrific place to call home.
Taste of Mequon is held annually on the second Saturday of September in the closed streets in front of City Hall and the Frank L. Weyenberg Library on North Cedarburg Road. This community event has grown every year and on average has 12,000-15,000 attendees. Participants can enjoy the taste of scrumptious food prepared by local restaurants, sit back and listen to sounds of local entertainers, visit with family, friends and neighbors, stroll from booth to booth to appreciate the artwork crafted by local artists. There are also activities geared just for children.
