INDIANAPOLIS – Ten of the most popular food trucks in Indianapolis will converge at 61st and Broadway Saturday for the first ever “Taste of the Trucks.” The trucks will park from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm.
The event is the brainchild of Intelligent Designs Media President Steve Neville, and Director of Sales David Butz. The idea is to promote local business.
“We are all trying to make this festival as grassroots a festival as possible to fit the concept of food truck advertising,” Neville said. “Food trucks in Indianapolis run their entire business through the power of word-of-mouth and, most importantly, social media. And if they can run successful businesses through these platforms, then we want to do the same for the festival.”
The event has used social media to spread the word, and several hundred people have already responded to say they’ll be there.
The event is family-friendly and admission is free. The food trucks will be charging their regular prices for the food offered, with sodas and water also available for purchase. The trucks participating are: Scratchtruck, Mabel On The Move, Fat Sammies Ciao Wagon, Hoosier Fat Daddy, Duos, TheNYslice, Groovy Guys Fries, Scout’s Treat Truck, Tacos Without Borders, and West Coast Tacos.
Guests can RSVP their attendance on Facebook.
