C&G Highlight: The Bayside Food Truck Fiesta

Local Community

Let’s be frank: the Chisholm and Gamon team are self-confessed foodies. That’s why we love bringing you the latest in Bayside’s best bites. This week, we’re highlighting the Bayside Food Truck Fiesta – the southside’s biggest food truck muster set to arrive this Spring. 

WHAT?

The Bayside Food Truck Fiesta is a family event with pop-ups in Williamstown, Geelong and our local favorite suburb – Highett. The Food Truck Fiesta team enjoyed great success last season, and they’re excited to once again fill tummies and celebrate sun, great food, refreshing drinks and local music with the Bayside community.

WHEN AND WHERE?

The food truck fun begins on Thursday, November 2nd and continues right over the weekend to Tuesday, November 7th (Melbourne Cup Day). You can find the festival at Sir William Fry Reserve, Highett and parking is available at nearby Southland Shopping Centre

WHAT TO WIN?

There are lots of great prizes to be won leading up to and during the event! Keep up to date on how to enter and the exciting prize pool via the Bayside Food Truck Festival website here.

THE FOOD?
Call your friends (especially the ones who are always hungry), and let them know that the Bayside Food Truck Fiesta has over 25 of Victoria's best food trucks rolling in to tempt your taste buds! While the full line-up is yet to be announced, we visited the event’s Facebook page and learned that the delicious Mr Chow and Toasta will be in attendance. When it comes to dessert - we’ve heard that Señor Churro and St Gerry’s will be doing the rounds. 

THE FUN?

Face painting, children’s rides, market stalls and live local music – there are so many activities on the agenda! November 7th is the final day of the festival, which happens to be the day Melbourne enjoys ‘the race that stops a nation’. You’re welcome to come along and watch the Melbourne Cup on the Fiesta’s big screen – more details about this event can be found here.

The Bayside Food Truck Fiesta simply ask for a gold coin donation upon entry – however $5 will gain you entry and a water or soft drink, and $10 will gain you entry and a beer or wine (18+). All ages welcome, and you don’t need to leave your four-legged friend at home either – they’re invited to the Fiesta too!
