Over 30 food trucks will line up on Benton Street between River Street and Broadway (IL Route 25) in the heart of downtown Aurora, serving a diverse array of culinary delight. From the famous Ricobene’s Food Truck, to a host of international flavors, including Tiki Terrace Hawaiian, Yum Dum, and Casita Boricua, the Fest is expected to draw thousands from Aurora and the surrounding area.

Foodies, families, and groups of friends are all welcome to savor the feast of flavors set to be on display. Music and free family-friendly activities, such as face painting, balloon animals, and bubble shows, will also be on hand, adding to the evening’s entertainment.
