Basic Guidelines (additional details will be sent upon registration):
- Food trucks are expected to arrive by 12:30 pm to allow time for setup and to be ready to begin serving at 2:00 pm.
- Following the event, food trucks must tear down and depart by 6:15 PM so that motorized traffic can safely resume.
- Past events have averaged several thousand participants; please keep this in mind when planning your food quantities.
- If you have tables and chairs, you’re welcome to bring them and set them up outside your food truck.
- We ask that you help manage customer lines by forming them along the side of your truck, rather than across the street.
