The National Cornbread Festival in South Pittsburg, Tennessee, has been officially canceled after organizers said scheduling conflicts with vendors and other festival participants would result in a sub-par event that isn’t what people expect.

There will be no 2021 festival either, thanks again to impacts from the pandemic on everyone’s schedules, Rogers said.
