Picklesburgh
Revelers at Picklesburgh in 2018.

Picklesburgh, the city’s annual celebration of all things pickled and Pittsburgh-y, doesn’t happen again until summer. But our hometown foodie event is among the 20 finalists for a competition in USA Today’s 10 Best series of travel guides, and you can vote now.

Picklesburgh’s competition for the title of “favorite specialty food festival in North America” includes Baltimore’s Mac and Cheese Festival, California’s Long Beach Vegan Festival, Key West’s Key Lime Festival and Montreal’s Le Grand Poutinefest.

If you think a whole day spent eating pickles on the Roberto Clemente Bridge sounds far better than any of those, you can vote for Picklesburgh here.
