(MANAYUNK, PA) — The largest food event in Philadelphia – and one of the largest food truck festivals in America – is back and bigger than ever! StrEAT Food Festival returns to Manayunk on Sunday, April 19, 2026, from 11:00am to 5:00pm. Over 85+ of the region’s top food trucks and food vendors will line historic Main Street for the day, serving up menus that range from savory BBQ and global street food to decadent desserts and sweet treats.

The lineup reads like a who’s who of the regional food truck scene, including favorites such as Bake’n Bacon, Deke’s BBQ, Humpty’s Dumplings, Hangry Joe’s Food Truck, The Famous 4th Street Cookie Company, Wokworks, G’Day Gourmet, Cousins Maine Lobster, and many more. In addition to the food trucks, the festival will also feature gourmet food vendors, unique shopping options and live music throughout the day.

New for 2026, the festival will feature an all-new, expanded family area, creating even more space for guests to relax, explore, and enjoy the day. The extended footprint also allows for additional food trucks and vendors, making this year’s festival the largest StrEAT yet. 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 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.’
