The Bayonne Food Truck Festival Returns on May 7!

After a 2-year hiatus, the Bayonne Food Truck Festival is back on Saturday, May 7th from 12pm – 7pm.

This FREE family-friendly event features food trucks, live music, a beer garden (cash only) kid activities, and more. Plus dogs are welcome!

The 2022 Bayonne Food Truck Festival will be the first iteration of the annual event since 2019, with COVID-19 preventing it from taking place in 2020 and 2021. The festival will take place on Avenue E between 22nd and 24th Streets. In order to accommodate the festival, portions of Avenue E will be closed to traffic. The city is encouraging the use of the Light Rail.

“We welcome the return of this popular community event. The food truck festival will offer people a day to try cuisine from the best food trucks in the region,” Mayor Jimmy Davis said. “We look forward to seeing both Bayonne residents and out-of-town visitors as we bring the food trucks back to Avenue E. The festival will welcome people to our community to celebrate the spring and to see how great Bayonne is.”

Participating food vendors will include House of Cupcakes, Chavas, Mozzarepas, Athens Delite, Taste of Poland, Angry Archies, Twisted Steak, 12 Truck, Cold Stone Creamery, JJ House of Dogs, Latin Bites, Hormans Pickles, The Little Sicilian, Kimchi Grill, El Chilango, No Forks Given, Venti, All American Wontons, Simply Done, Mac Truck, Just Delicious Kettle Corn, and more.
