FOOD TRUCK FESTIVAL TAKING OVER SOUTH STREET SEAPORT

Four years ago NYC's very first food truck festival stole the hearts of New Yorkers with the simple idea of spending an afternoon grabbing a bite from the best of our cities food trucks, listening to some great music, and reconnecting with your city. Always ahead of the curve, MeanRed brings you this annual event that celebrates a slice of your hometown life in New York. Since then PARKED! has grown in five to this years to 30 trucks making a home in beautiful outdoor venues such as BKLYN Yard, Governor's Island, and now... South Street Seaport!

On Saturday, August 20th, the trend setting truck festival returns to Manhattan at the waterfront open venue South Street Seaport. On top of our 30+ food trucks we'll have a beer garden, a mainstage with incredible bands and DJs, face painting, Foodie diversions and a playground on site for kids, and you can even buy a PARKED! pass which gives you reduced price food at the trucks and one free drink!

That's not all, They've worked with our trucks to pick the best of the best from their menus, and all trucks will be offering items at a five dollar and eight dollar price point along with their regular menu, so everyone can swing by and affordably purchase a quick bite.

Happy happy joy joy, I can't wait for this!
