Long Island’s Favorite Weekly Food Truck Event Kicks Off May 1st with Flavor, Fun, and Community
As the weather warms and Long Island comes back to life, one of the season’s most anticipated weekly events is officially returning. Food Truck Fridays in Levittown is back for 2026, bringing together incredible food, local families, and a vibrant community atmosphere every single week.
Kicking off on May 1st, this beloved event transforms the grounds of VFW Post 9592 into a lively outdoor food destination that runs every Friday evening through October. From 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM, guests can gather, eat, and unwind in one of Long Island’s most unique weekly experiences.
Long Island’s First Weekly Food Truck Park
Since its launch in 2018, Food Truck Fridays has grown into Long Island’s longest-running weekly food truck event—and for good reason. Each week features a rotating lineup of 8–10 gourmet food trucks, offering everything from international street food and savory comfort dishes to decadent desserts.
This ever-changing lineup keeps things exciting, giving visitors a reason to come back week after week to discover new favorites or revisit the trucks they love most.
A Family-Friendly Night Out
Food Truck Fridays isn’t just about the food—it’s about the experience. The large open field at the venue offers plenty of space for families and friends to spread out, relax, and enjoy the evening together. Kids can run around, couples can kick back with a bite and a drink, and groups can gather picnic-style under the open sky.
The event is completely free to attend, welcoming guests of all ages. Whether you’re planning a casual family dinner, a low-key date night, or just looking for something fun to do on a Friday, this weekly event checks every box.
Supporting Local Heroes and Students
Beyond the incredible food and lively atmosphere, Food Truck Fridays also serves a greater purpose. The event helps support VFW Post 9592, with proceeds contributing to local initiatives and student scholarships.
It’s a chance for the community to come together—not just to eat well, but to give back and support those who have served and the next generation of local students.
