Brookline Based Food Trucks to Participate in This Weekend's Holiday Arts & Eats Festival

We are just 2 days away from the launch of the weekend-long Holiday Arts & Eats Festival taking place at Somerville’s Assembly Row and we are pleased to announce that Baja Taco Truck and Paris Creperie's La Tour Eiffel, both based out of Brookline are amongst the 20 trucks participating in the weekend event! Baja Taco Truck will be serving up Mexican foods and Tacos, and the menu for Paris Creperie's La Tour Eiffel will include a variety of savory crepes. This will be the area’s first-ever winter Food Truck festival, in conjunction with an artisan market, and more.

Friday night, December 6th, will be a 21+ only evening called “Holiday Arts & Eats After Dark,” featuring multiple bar areas with beer and gluhwein (hot wine), live bands and DJ, in addition to the Food Trucks and artisan market. Friday night admission is $10.

Saturday and Sunday, December 7th-8th is more of the Food Trucks, artisan market, Santa and an array of kid’s activities all day from 11am-6pm. Special “early” VIP entry costs $15 from 11am-12pm for shorter lines, and regular admission from 12pm-6pm costs $5 and is free for children 12 and under.
