Food Truck Festivals of America (FTFA) is the nation’s leading Food Truck & Craft Beverage Festival company — the biggest and best in the U.S.!
Founded in 2011 right here in New England, FTFA made history as the first company in America to bring the food truck craze to life through large-scale festivals. What started as a few local Boston-area events has exploded into a coast-to-coast celebration of gourmet food trucks, craft beverages, music, and community fun.
Over the years, we’ve hosted more than 300 major festivals — from Massachusetts to New Mexico — and we’re still growing strong! Our mission is simple:
👉 Celebrate small business owners behind the wheels of America’s best food trucks.
👉 Create unforgettable experiences that bring people together around great food, great drinks, and great vibes.
We don’t just throw events — we create destination experiences that showcase the best food trucks, the most exciting craft beverages, and the amazing communities that love them.
So, the only question is...

Please join us on September 18 for an unforgettable evening at World’s End, The Trustees’ most iconic South Shore landscape. Explore a bygone Transcendentalist community whose pastoral landscape houses wide-ranging collections of art and artifacts. In 1843, Amos Bronson Alcott and Charles Lane turned a swath of Harvard farmland into a Transcendentalist experiment in subsistence farming and Emersonian self-reliance, named Fruitlands, which ultimately disbanded after only seven months. In 1914, Clara Endicott Sears opened the grounds to the public, establishing a museum in the property’s 1820s farmhouse. Now, the 210-acre landscape encompasses five collections first established by Sears: the original Fruitlands Farmhouse; the Shaker Museum, the first such museum in the country; the Wayside Visitor Center, a classroom, education, and exhibit space; the Seasonal Gallery; and the Four Seas...
