Food Truck Festival Returns to Shoppers World Oct. 6

Tickets now on sale; organizers the pre-ordered "taste tickets" will cut down on the very long lines customers saw last year.

Last year, everyone was raving about the food but complaining about the long lines at the first-ever food truck festival at Shoppers World.

Armed with a new ticketing method to speed up the lines, the 2nd Annual Food Truck Festival  takes place Saturday, Oct. 6 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

This year, attendees are invited to purchase "taste tickets" to be used like currency at the trucks, said organizers. Ten taste tickets cost $13 and 20 tickets for $25. Tickets are available for purchase now and on Oct. 6 at Shoppers World Tickets can be purchased ahead of time at www.foodtruckfestivalsofne.com
