NEWPORT NEWS — The Great Food Truck Festival returns Saturday with more than 20 food and beverage vendors, DJ sets and 1990s-themed activities at Newport News/Williamsburg International Airport.
The ninth annual festival, scheduled for noon to 6 p.m. will include retro arcade games, trivia, bingo, a dance competition and a Best Dressed Contest. Christine Lakin, who played Al Lambert on ABC’s “Step by Step,” will serve as a guest judge for the contest. The winner will receive $100, and VIP ticket holders will have an opportunity to meet Lakin.
Attendees are encouraged to dress in 1990s-inspired clothing, including plaid flannel shirts and color-block windbreakers.
“This is our ninth year producing the Great Food Truck Festival, and we wanted this year to feel like more than just a food festival,” said Shannon Combs, owner of Lux Events LLC, the Hampton Roads-based company producing the festival. “The 90s theme gives us an opportunity to bring together great food, nostalgia, and experiences that adults and families can enjoy throughout the entire day.”
