The Marietta Sweet Corn Festival Committee has canceled the 2021 festival.
The committee met Monday and voted unanimously to cancel the event scheduled to occur this year on July 16 and 17.
The festival started in 2008 and has grown in size and detail every year until the pandemic.
“We’ve tackled relocation, rain, recession and extreme heat, but the challenge of preventing the spread of this dangerous virus exceeds the skills and abilities of the festival committee and volunteers,” said Mark Doebrich, vice chairman of the festival’s committee in a press release Tuesday. “Our hope is to resume the free, family-oriented event on the corresponding date in July 2022, as the bug becomes less virulent and dangerous.”
