“I am excited to see this event be such a success for our community to enjoy. I hope everyone will come out and have fun at this month’s special celebration,” says Amy Tidwell, Main Street Director.
Corsicana Main Street began the Food Truck Friday in April 2022 and since then the event became an instant hit in the community with anywhere from 500 to 2,000 people in attendance. This month, you can expect 11 food trucks in attendance including: Alma’s Street Tacos, Taco Station, Rooster and the Dove, Tomasa’s Tamales, Brats N Tots, Rachele’s Filipino Kitchen, Sno Biz – Dallas, C&S Baking Co, Boudreaux’s Rollin’, Shake the Bone and Amazin’ Grazin’ BBQ. Food Truck Friday is every first Friday and will continue through the Summer for June and July.
