Dec 20 2017, 5:00 am

As the weather warms up, more of Metro Vancouver’s favourite food trucks will be back on the streets and circling up at popular events celebrating the fun of hanging out in the fresh air and ordering up good eats from truck windows. With eight locations and dates, the 2016 Fraser Valley Food Truck Festival is about to get rolling for a delicious few months of four-wheeled fun.

Kicking off the season on April 2, the FVFTF heads to Port Moody, then rolls onto the Cloverdale Fairgrounds in Surrey on April 9. The FVFTF will hit up Chilliwack, Abbotsford, and Mission in April, Maple Ridge in May, Langley in June, and Fort Langley in September to close out the spring and summer of truck eats and family-friendly activities.

In addition to nearly a couple dozen food trucks at each location, the FVFTF includes live entertainment and lots of vendors to check out. Admission is FREE, too. This is the third year the Fraser Valley Food Truck Association is putting on the event; they started with a small gathering in 2014 in Chilliwack and have improved the event each year since.
