Residents and visitors will soon be able to stop and stay for a coffee or a snack while supporting local food businesses at Fairfield Showground.
Expressions of interest are now open for coffee/food truck owners to operate at Fairfield Showground in a prime position alongside the People’s Globe and close to Deerbush Park playground.
Fairfield City Mayor Frank Carbone said this is a great opportunity for local business while creating a unique experience for the community and visitors to Deerbush Park.
“Council has been getting excellent feedback on the all-abilities playground and splash pad at Deerbush Park since it opened last year,” Mayor Carbone said.
“One request that keeps coming up is the provision of a nearby food truck for visitors to grab a coffee or bite to eat, and stay and play for longer.
“We would like to offer an opportunity to local food trucks to set up shop in the Showground’s main car park on a rotating basis, to not only support as many local businesses as we can, but to provide a variety of cuisines for visitors to try,” Mayor Carbone said.
“Fairfield Showground is an ideal location for this, as it is in the centre of the city, has plenty of parking and lots of visitors using its playground, dog park, walking and cycling tracks, and attending its community festivals and sporting events.
“I am certain this will be a popular addition to the unique and varied offering we have at Fairfield Showground. There really is something for everyone.”
