Free food truck festival rolls into Brampton for Labour Day long weekend

Dozens of food trucks are coming to Brampton this Labour Day long weekend for a celebration of street food around the world and to raise money for the SickKids Foundation.

Bramptonians are sure to find something to get their tummies rumbling when 40 food trucks from across Canada take over Chinguacousy Park this weekend, serving up everything from burgers, Colombian street food, ice cream, gourmet grilled cheese, donairs, tacos and much more.

There will also be trucks offering vegetarian, halal, vegan and gluten free options for foodies with discriminating tatses or dietary restrictions.

Admission into the festival is free, and guests can take in live musical performances and family-friendly entertainment while sampling the food truck menus and cold beer. You can also sign up for daily eating challenges if you’re feeling both hungry and competitive.

The annual event is organized by Canadian Food Truck Festivals, which have already held food truck festivals in Burlington, Pickering, Toronto this summer. The festival has been rolling since 2013, but only branched out to Brampton in 2018.

Proceeds from the event will go towards the SickKids Foundation, and Canadian Food Truck Festival says its festivals have raised more than $250,000 to date for the SickKids Possibilities Fund, supporting the highest priority needs at SickKids.
