I don't know of a specific one you might be referring to, but in virtually every state where tomatoes are grown, there will be some kind of late summer "tomato festival".
Tamotina Festival
15 tons
SPAIN
I think the reason for the tomato festival is because a tomato is a very loved food. Also, you can do so many things with tomatoes such as carving it to make a beautiful rose, growing it large, and even setting the record for the SMALLEST tomato. The festival is held to allow many people to share their interesting tomatoes...and to see who is their competition on the largest/smallest, etc. But the tomato festival is not just for the tomatoes! You can also experience a tomato tasting! Many people go to the tomato festival to share their dishes they have made with their ground-grown tomatoes or even store bought! It is also a chance to try other people's recipes...possibly family recipes, secret recipes, or a recipe they would like to share with everyone! The tomato festival is a joy to many people, but I still do not know why the TOMATO part is so special. Perhaps it is because you can make so many juicy and rare dishes with the tomato! I would love to go to a tomato festival sometime!
