For Immediate Release
Downtown Little Rock Partnership Announces Dates for the
Main Street Food Truck Festival and Main Street Food Truck Fridays

(Little Rock, Ark.) The Downtown Little Rock Partnership (DLRP) announced today the dates for two of the city’s most popular culinary events – the Main Street Food Truck Festival and Main Street Food Truck Fridays.

The 7th Annual Main Street Food Truck Festival will be held on Saturday, October 7.  The Festival, which hosted nearly 50,000 people in 2016, will include over fifty trucks and vendors situated along Main Street and Capitol Avenue in the heart of downtown.

Main Street Food Truck Fridays is a weekly series that invites favorite food trucks to the plaza at the corner of Main Street and Capitol Avenue each spring and fall.  Diners will be able to choose among four to five options during the lunch hours between 10:45am and 1:30pm.  Main Street Food Truck Fridays begins April 21 and runs every Friday through June 23.

“Little Rock is fast becoming known for its incredible collection of food trucks,” said Gabe Holmstrom, DLRP Executive Director.  “We are excited to bring them downtown for Main Street Food Truck Fridays and the Main Street Food Truck Festival where residents, workers, and visitors can all enjoy and celebrate this vibrant and delicious community.”
