THE TORREVIEJA STREET FOOD Festival comes to the city later this month. The famous “Feria de Foodtrucks” food market has already proven a hit throughout the Costa Blanca and will visit our neighbouring city from Friday 24th October.
Originally scheduled to take place from Wednesday 8th October, the organisers announced the cancellation of this initial date due to an inclement weather forecast, a day before the inauguration.
The festival brings together vintage food trucks, a DJ, live music from local performing artists, and family-friendly entertainment over the course of the weekend.
The classic specially adapted trucks will serve a selection of street food that embraces global flavours from around the world, including German hot dogs, French-style crepes, Belgian waffles, grilled Argentinian meats, Mexican specialities, and a selection of American, Spanish, and European burgers.

On Saturday, the fun starts earlier at 13:00, with local artists set to take to the stage during the day, and additional entertainment for children.
The Torrevieja street food festival continues on Sunday afternoon from 12:00 with performances from local musicians, live entertainment, and succulent street food delights throughout the day.
