Mayfest organizers have jumped on the food truck bandwagon.
The 41st annual festival, scheduled May 16-19, for the first time is inviting food trucks to join in with traditional vendors, organizers announced.
Mayfest features approximately 30 food vendors.
"The Tulsa community now offers great food trucks, and we're excited to incorporate them into the festival," said Heather Pingry, executive director of Tulsa International Mayfest.
A selection committee is seeking food truck applications and will review them based on quality of foods, variety of menu, and pricing; food service experience with large crowds; needs of food preparation and size of facility requirements; past compliance with health regulations; and previous experience and successful operation at other major festivals.
All food truck applications are due by Feb. 8.
For questions regarding the application process, send emails to comments@tulsamayfest.org or call the Mayfest office at (918) 582-6435.
