Food Truck Festival: Chicago Food Truck Festival (Season 13)

06/20/2026 until 06/22/2026 | South Loop, Chicago, IL

Chicago's favourite food-truck festival returns for its thirteenth season, 'The Return of the Daisy', over a June weekend in the South Loop. The festival serves chef-prepared gourmet eats from Chicago's top food trucks, with live music, signature Daisy margaritas and a family-friendly day of tasting. Gates run 10:00am to 7:00pm and visitors are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and settle in. Billed as one of America's premier food-truck festivals, it's a polished, well-established event with a loyal following; past visitors rave about lobster rolls, jerk dishes and the busy margarita stand. It's an easy, all-ages day out in a central city location. Check the organiser's site for ticketing and the truck line-up.
