CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — The first-ever Chattanooga World Food Truck Festival will debut as a free, family-friendly celebration of food, culture, music, and community connection on Saturday, July 11, 2026, from 11:00 a.m.–7:00 p.m. at the Tennessee Riverpark.
Created by chefs Sara Turney and Desiree Hulsey, they say the festival was intentionally built to create an affordable and accessible platform for food trucks, cottage bakers, specialty food makers, beverage vendors, and culinary entrepreneurs.
