Where to look for food truck festivals?

Short answer: EVERYWHERE!

Long answer: There are a lot of places worldwide where you can find fantastic food trucks to try out different kinds of street foods. But where best to look for interesting food truck events?

Best place to start is actually Malaysia. Penang International Food Festival organised in the capital is a food truck festival proudly wearing the title of the Guinness World Records largest food truck rally. In 2018 they gathered 158 food trucks from all around the country! Every year a major event is scheduled typically during the summer but there are a lot of mini festivals as well so if you ever visit Malayasia for your holidays, be sure to check them out!

Next up is the melting pot of all cultures: the USA. There are several bif food truck events organised throughout the country in all the states but the most notable ones take place in Los Angeles, Chicago, Columbus, Atlanta and Sea Isle City.

For example, the LA Street Food Fest is one of the biggest food truck festivals in the world and gathers dishes from all over the globe. Every year there are over 100 vendors present, and you can listen to live music there too!

What if you live in Australia? Then the best place for you is the Melbourne Street Eatz which rallies dozens on food trucks to the Yarra riverfront. And it lasts for a few months each time!

And if you happen to visit Europe, we can wholeheartedly recommend the Festiwal Smaków Food Trucków food truck festival in Poland, which travels all around the country and visits all major cities. There is also the European Street Food Festival which drives around Austria, and Streeat, another mobile food truck festival which currently resides in Italy.
