The Columbus Food Truck Festival is back on in Columbus, Ohio after being cancelled last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The event this weekend will boast 46 vendors as well as 25 retail booths and live music, according to an NBC report.

It's being held at the Franklin County Fairgrounds where there will be over 150 tables set up in accordance to pandemic safety measures.

"I am elated," Chas Kaplan, a fair founder, told the news outlet. "2020 was such a hard year for everyone, and we're just super excited to be back."

Kaplan said a number of COVID-19 safety measures will be in place as the festival follows state, local and Centers for Disease Control guidelines.
