“Now in our 4th year, we are pleased to be kicking off our 2014 season with the first-ever, Somerville Food Truck Festival,” said Anne-Marie Aigner, Executive Producer of Food Truck Festivals of New England (FTFNE). “Our mission has always been to bring food truck festivals to cities and towns that want these events – and Somerville has been more than welcoming and excited to help us launch the 2014 season!”
The Somerville Food Truck Festival is being produced in partnership with the City of Somerville and the city’s newest neighborhood, Assembly Row, which also hosted ASSEMBLED last summer as well as Riverfest and Holiday Arts & Eats. Assembly Row will be offering festival-goers incentives, discounts, and perks, plus a complimentary coupon booklet with savings at their retailers that extend through 2014.
Somerville is the first of six food truck festivals being produced by FTFNE in 2014, with the Worcester Food Truck Festival next on June 21st. In addition, FTFNE is also producing a variety of monthly and weekly food truck and arts events, all of which can be found in the coming weeks at www.foodtruckfestivalsofne.com.
