Food Truck Thursdays

Thursdays, June 5 - August 28 | 4:30 PM - Dusk
Jens Jensen Park

Mark your calendars: Food Truck Thursdays returns to the Ravinia District this summer June 5 through August 28 at Jens Jensen Park! Savor fresh flavors from a variety of food trucks while enjoying warm summer evenings, and dancing to great music every Thursday night, 4:30 PM to dusk in the Ravinia District!

We can’t imagine a better way to spend a summer evening than good friends, good food and of course, great music. Check back soon for the full season musical lineup.

Food Truck Thursdays are presented by the City of Highland Park and the Ravinia District Special Service Area 17 property owners, and are managed by Bensidoun USA. The music for Food Truck Thursdays is coordinated by Life Rhythms, Inc., and is co-sponsored by the Highland Park Community Foundation. Additional event sponsors include Wayfarer Theaters.
