Make your plans for a great spring event. One of the largest and most celebrated food truck festivals in America is back - and it's even bigger and tastier than ever! StrEAT Food Festival returns to Manayunk on Sunday, April 27th, from 11:00am to 5:00pm. Over 70 of the region's top food trucks and food vendors will line historic Main Street for the day, with menus that include everything from savory BBQ to sweet desserts - and everything in between. 

Manayunk is centrally located just 15 minutes from Center City Philadelphia, King of Prussia, Chestnut Hill, and The Main Line. Nestled along the banks of the Schuylkill River and the Manayunk Canal and Tow Path, the commercial district is lined with
renovated Victorian storefronts and mill buildings giving you an urban experience with small town charm.

The list of participants is a who's who of the regional food truck scene, including Bala Saahas, Humpty's Dumplings, Beck’s Cajun Cafe, Wokworks, G'Day Gourmet, Molto Bene! Ravioli Co., Bonjour Creperie, Deke's BBQ, Fishtown Pickle Project, Gigi and Big R, Cousins Maine Lobster, Moocheeze, and more.  Festivities will also include shopping vendors, local artists and makers, Manayunk merchants, live music and other fun surprises. Main Street Manayunk will be closed to vehicle traffic to allow all visitors a chance to explore the historic neighborhood.

This rain or shine event is the perfect spring escape for visitors of all ages. There is no admission charge, and all food and drink is pay-as-you-go. "Manayunk StrEAT Food Festival is one of the most anticipated springtime traditions in Philadelphia and in Pennsylvania," said Manayunk Development Corporation Director of Events Caitlin Marsilii. "We are thrilled to bring the event back for 2025 with one of our largest line-ups ever - with 70+ food trucks and gourmet vendors."

She continued, "We are always excited to bring the region's award-winning food truck scene right to the heart of Manayunk. It is the perfect pairing with our thriving restaurant scene. We have worked hard over the years to curate the right mix of cuisines, dishes, traditions and vendors - and we hope that everyone will find something truly delicious at StrEAT. We can't wait to see you on historic Main Street on April 27th."

Manayunk StrEAT Food Festival is the first big blockbuster festival of the spring season in Philadelphia. The outdoor, rain-or-shine event will feature some of the most award-winning food trucks and mobile vendors from Philadelphia, Central PA, South Jersey, Delaware and beyond.

Menu offerings this year will include pizza, tacos, lobster, burgers, ravioli, dumplings, pickles, pound cake, corn on a stick, bacon on a stick, grilled cheese, wok bowls, and much, much more. Visitors will find something for every palate, with tried and true favorites, twists on classics, and modern dishes picture perfect for the 'gram.'

In addition to outdoor food and sips, visitors can also enjoy live music from six different acts playing throughout the festival at the Shurs Lane and Green Lane Stages. Look for a who's who of the local music scene, with acts including Close Drive, The Jimmies, The Honey Badgers, Blank Pages, Other Brothers, and Pepperwine.

Attendees are also invited to shop from local artists and makers throughout the festival, as well as stop into Manayunk's wide variety of shops and restaurants that will be offering promotions and specials for the day.
