Friday: Trucks, Treats & Eats
Kick off the weekend with food, music, and fun under the lights.
📍 Location: Palm Bay City Hall
⏰ Time: 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Bring your appetite to City Hall this Friday evening! The popular “Trucks, Treats & Eats” event is back with a special holiday twist. This isn’t just dinner; it’s a community block party.
You can expect a lineup of local food trucks serving up everything from savory street food to sweet holiday desserts. While you eat, enjoy upbeat music from a live DJ who will be keeping the energy high. It’s a great chance to let the kids run around, explore the city trucks (including fire trucks!), and catch up with friends and neighbors.
