‘Foodie Fridays’ to be held at City Hall

If you are a fan of Summerfest, the City of Prince George is cooking something up for you.

‘Foodie Fridays’ will be held every Friday from August 5th – September 30th from 10a-2pm in Veterans Square. The space will be opened up to food trucks and vendors in an attempt to support local businesses and revitalize downtown.

“I have always said that the area in front of City Hall is the best front yard in the city.” Mayor Lyn Hall said in a statement “Foodie Fridays helps to make use of that, and gives the thousands of people who work in the downtown area a pleasant, social, outdoor place to go for a casual lunch.”

The Frozen Paddle, Spicy Greens, Shiraz Café and Restaurant, and Smokehouse on the Run have already confirmed attendance.

“I am very happy that the City of Prince George is undertaking this new initiative because it is a chance to show off the diversity of Prince George’s downtown and I encourage all businesses to support it,” said Reza Akbari, owner of Shiraz Café and Restaurant

Anyone interested in participating in Foodie Fridays are encouraged to contact Deanna Wasnik, Manager of Development Services, at 250.561.7688 or by emailing [email protected].
