Where is the event held: 3001 N. Grant Springfield, MO – Ozark Empire Fairgrounds – 3001 N. Grant in Springfield Mo. in the NORTH WOODS. Enter through Gate 10 on Smith Street across from Hilcrest Highschool.

What does it cost to attend? It is FREE to attend and open to all ages – bring the family and have an awesome day with us!

When does the event open to the public? 11am Saturday, May 31, 2025. Opens at 11am and closes at 7pm the same day.

What kinds of food can I expect to find at the event? We have over 20 trucks scheduled to be at the Rally. All kinds of food ranging from sweets to smoked and everything in between.

How long will it take to get food from a food truck? Remember that each truck has 2 to 3 folks working inside. It will take longer than a “normal drive thru” to get your order – more along the lines of a “sit down” style restaurant. Please understand there is a possibility of long lines and slower than normal service from the food trucks because of the large amount of folks who have expressed interest in attending the event.

Will there be entertainment at the event? Yes, we will have live music for you to enjoy on the stage.

Can I bring a cooler? Sorry, but NO outside food or drinks allowed.

Can I bring my pet? NO – Service animals ONLY. This is a FOOD event and the risk for accidental bites from dropped food are the reason for this ruling. Yes, we love pets, but we hate the possibility of someone getting their fingers mistaken for a snack. For this reason, we ask that no pets be brought to the event.
Service animals are the ONLY exception.

Can I bring my lawn chairs/blankets? YES, the facility has very limited seating, so we encourage you to bring your own blanket or a lawn/folding chair and enjoy the day with us.

Where is parking? Parking is FREE this year by moving the event to the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds we can offer FREE PARKING!

Will there be an ATM on site? YES, we will have an ATM on site.
BUT, save yourself the ATM fee and bring cash as some of the vendors may only take cash.
