Summary of Event: The first ever
Phoenixville Food Festival begins Saturday, October 5th at 12pm. Phoenixville First, the local organization

of town leaders, has put together a food event that will include a Food Truck Festival on
Saturday (time designated above), followed by a restaurant week Sunday - Thursday
(10/6 - 10/10). Also on October 5th, the downtown will host two additional
events, TEDx at the Colonial Theatre and a Pub Crawl with participating bars. We plan to have
free parking in Borough lots, and musical acts, as well as a vendor area.

We
are working to spread the word to residents and businesses as quickly

as we can, and appreciate your patience and understanding in this

event's first year!



How the Food Truck Festival
works:
Exact
layouts will soon become available. Bridge Street will not be closed to
traffic, but Main Street will be closed between Church and Bridge Streets for a
vending space. The trucks will line Bridge as well, but will be facing the
sidewalk. While there will be no parking on Bridge Street or Main Street
(between Church and Bridge), we plan to create a detailed parking map so that
residents, businesses and guests can prepare for the event. We plan to have
more than 10 food trucks, and will also use Main Street as a the additional
vending space, and will have seating and music in the Main and Bridge Parking
Lot.



How Restaurant Week works: This part of the event runs from

Sunday, October 6th – Thursday, October 10th.  We would love to see our restaurants
participate to the fullest! This year will include Dinner only, and will
function under a prefix menu.



Prefix: The prices will be $10 (for
small boutique food options), $25, and $35. Participating Restaurants will create a meal option that
fits into one of these price points. It may be priced per
person, or per twosome.
