Food Truck Friday returns Friday, June 6, adds nights in South Reno, Stead

Summer is nearly here. The days are warmer, and the nights are longer.

One of Reno’s most popular summer traditions — Food Truck Friday — is returning Friday, June 6 to Idlewild Park. The 13-week event runs from 4- 9 p.m. Fridays through August 29.

What about the rest of Reno?

For Renoites who don’t want to make the drive into downtown Reno or deal with Friday night’s bustle, Food Truck Friday is adding two more food truck events to the roster.

On Wednesdays, dozens of food trucks will set up shop in South Reno at Cyan Park on Veterans Parkway and Long Meadow Drive. It will run from 4-8 p.m. Wednesday nights from June 11 to August 6.

The event will also take place from 4-8 p.m. Thursdays between June 12 and August 7 at North Valleys Regional Park.
