TOPEKA (KSNT) – Gage Park will be filled with food trucks, live music and activities for the whole family in August.
The third annual Food Truck Fest will be one of the largest free events in Shawnee County this year from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 24 at Gage Park. More than 23 different food trucks, vendors and entertainers will be at the park for the event.
Aaron Parrish with the Poppin Squeeze food truck founded the festival in 2022.
“After Covid I saw a real lack of large events for (food) trucks and the community,” Parrish said. “There was a big change from when we founded our truck in 2011 to post-Covid, and we really wanted to provide the kind of event like the ones we used to have.”
The festival is exclusively made up of Shawnee County vendors and entertainers. New to the event this year are the Dallas Pryor & The Lazy Wayne Band, a petting zoo and even the KC Wolf.
Parrish wanted the public to know this event is free and that families can easily make a day of it by exploring Gage Park, the nearby Topeka Zoo & Conservation Center, Kansas Children’s Discovery Center and trying something new at this local event.
