The streets of downtown Chilliwack are about to come alive with the delicious aroma of street food, the sound of live music, and the joyful buzz of community connection. The Chilliwack Party in the Park Food Truck Festival is back and better than ever, promising a summer night filled with flavour, festivities, and fun for all ages.

Location & Dates

Join the celebration on Saturday, July 6th, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM in Central Community Park, located at 45951 Victoria Ave, in the heart of downtown Chilliwack. This popular park transforms into a vibrant outdoor venue every summer, and this year’s food truck festival is set to be one of the highlights of the season.

What to Expect

This family-friendly event is a feast for the senses, combining the region’s best food trucks with live entertainment, artisan vendors, and activities for kids.

Here’s what’s on the menu:

• Over 20 Food Trucks featuring everything from Korean BBQ and gourmet poutine to plant-based eats, Mexican street tacos, mini donuts, and bubble tea. Returning favourites include Rolling Cashew, Guerilla Q BBQ, and Crema Ice Cream Truck, along with some exciting new vendors making their Chilliwack debut.
• Live Music & Performances: Two stages will host a rotating lineup of local bands, dancers, and solo acts, showcasing Chilliwack’s vibrant arts scene. Expect a mix of rock, country, indie, and cultural showcases.

Parking & Tips

Parking is available at nearby lots and along downtown streets, but arriving early or using public transit is recommended. Bring a blanket or folding chair to enjoy the live performances, and come hungry — you’ll want to try more than one truck.
