Spooky season is here, and so are Halloween-themed events and treats, such as the Halloween Food Truck Festival coming to Scarborough at the end of October!
Canadian Food Truck Festivals and children's charity Variety Ontario are hosting the family-friendly, accessible Halloween Food Truck Festival on Saturday, October 29 from 12 to 8 p.m. and Sunday, October 30 from 12 to 6 p.m. at Variety Village, located at 3701 Danforth Avenue.
Entry is free, but the organizations suggest a $5 or greater donation to support Variety Ontario's unique programming for children with disabilities. While the food trucks themselves are not necessarily Halloween-specific, visitors are encouraged to attend in costume for treats, entertainment and even a kids' costume contest.
