Dreaming of dining al fresco, with something for all taste buds and entertainment for children? Food Cart Fest happens each Sunday from 1–5 pm between the Cambie Street Bridge and the Olympic Plaza Station until September 6.
With over twenty food trucks and live entertainment, this is a summer party you’ll be happy to hang up your apron for.
This year there’s an expanded children’s recreation zone, with giant LEGO bricks and a ping pong area, and the Sunday Local, a licensed live-music patio. While the kids are playing, map out your plan of food attack—line ups can get long. A few of our family favourites are Mom’s Grilled Cheese Truck, Taco Fino, and Burger Joint.
We love that this event supports the Greater Vancouver Food Bank—the nominal $2.50 entry fee is waived if you bring a non-perishable donation. It’s also easily accessible by bike, Canada Line, or Aquabus, and is a Zero Waste Event.
But most of all we love the idea of a night away from the kitchen.
