After a tornado and a year under a pandemic, East Nashville’s signature event is back and expecting more attendees than ever.

The essence of Tomato Art Fest can really be found in the array of wacky & hilarious contests, and the Push, Pull & Wear Parade kicking off tomato weekend, full of floats and costumes. True to our namesake, the ART gets a big part of the tomato spotlight, where The Tomato ART Show and Tomato Art Preview Party showcases over 300 tomato-inspired pieces throughout the weekend. The local East Nashvillians behind this beloved event strive to improve the festival each year in all areas while keeping the character of Tomato Art Fest the same familiar fun that Nashville has known and loved for nearly 20 years.
Solaren is proud to continue carrying the torch for safety and security at the Annual Tomato Arts Festival in East Nashville – CEO, Jack Byrd III
