CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) — Food Truck Fridays are now expanding with evening events, the Kitchen Incubator of Chattanooga (KIC) announced on Monday. “KIC Nights” will take place on the third Friday of each month.
KIC is proud to have established Food Truck Fridays as a place to grab lunch on the first Friday of each month.
Now, KIC Nights will bring food trucks, family fun, market vendors and live entertainment to the community. KIC Nights will take place in the parking lot and streets around KIC, located at 5704 Marlin Road, near Eastgate.
The community can grab a bite to eat from a food truck from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. during KIC Nights.
“Food Truck Fridays has had overwhelming support over the past year,” said Pat Rowe, KIC Member Support Manager. “One thing we heard from many attendees was, ‘Why don’t you have a nighttime Food Truck Friday?’. We listened, and KIC Nights will fill that need. It’s a family-friendly event with great food, vendors of all sorts of products, live entertainment featuring DJ Dolla Bill, and, most importantly, family fun. We will give out free giant glow sticks, and US101 will be doing a live remote broadcast. I suggest people get here early for the maximum amount of fun and food.”
In addition, the first KIC Nights event will have a “Neon Glow Party” theme, giving free glow sticks to the first 200 guests.
The following food trucks will be participating at KIC Nights on March 15.
- Los Tainos Kitchen
- The Bistro
- Sak’s Wing Shak
- Wing Top Tots
- Chef Chasty Seafood & More
- Broken Hearts Cheesecakes
- All Things Made with Love
- Down Home Bakes
- C&C Candy CO.
KIC Nights will last through August in 2024.
KIC is a facility that provides a fully equipped commercial grade kitchen to culinary entrepreneurs.
“This is another way for us to highlight our food entrepreneur clients. It’s another way for us to support the Brainerd community. It is another option for families to have a fun, safe environment on a Friday evening,” DeJuan Jordan, Co-CEO of LAUNCH, the parent organization of the Kitchen Incubator of Chattanooga, said.
