The City of Urbana has organized a monthly lunchtime food truck series, in which several local food trucks will park at the Urbana Civic Center the last Tuesday of June, July, and August. Check out the press release below.
Downtown Urbana to Feature Summer Lunchtime Food Truck Rally Series
Gourmet food trucks from around the Urbana-Champaign area will converge on the Urbana Civic Center located at 108 E. Water Street on the last Tuesday of each month in June, July and August for a lunchtime food truck rally series. This series of events, brought to you by the City of Urbana Community Development Department, will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., rain or shine.
There will be both indoor seating (inside the Civic Center) and outdoor seating (under tents and on picnic blankets in the grass west of the Civic Center) and access to restrooms. In addition to the food trucks, performers will be stationed around the event to provide music and entertainment.
“We’re excited to present this type of event in downtown Urbana over the lunch hour and during the work week,” commented Urbana’s Marketing Coordinator and Director of Urbana’s Market at the Square Natalie Kenny Marquez. “Our goal is to get folks out of their offices and to Urbana’s Civic Center to socialize, soak up some sun, and enjoy a great selection of C-U’s finest street food.”
There is no admission fee and this event will be great fun for all ages.
