About the event
Mark your calendar! On the First Friday of every month (April-Oct), thousands of residents and visitors fill the Crossroads Arts District to enjoy what has become Kansas City’s most dynamic and popular event: #FirstFridaysKC. The Crossroad's community comes alive as arts organizations, galleries, studios, and a wide variety of businesses in the district feature local, regional, national, and international artists. Start your adventure in the hub of it all on 19th Street, between Baltimore and Wyandotte, and experience over 100 local art vendors, buskers, live music and more! The Crossroads Arts District is best explored on foot once you arrive. We recommend making it a day of it with lunch or dinner at one of the many fabulous restaurants, free comedy shows at Bird Comedy Theatre or check out a local craft brewery!

Parking instructions
There are many parking options in the Crossroads, but during First Friday, those who arrive a bit earlier have a better chance at finding on-street parking. There are a number of parking lot options around the community, or you could park nearby Union Station or City Market and take a FREE KC Streetcar ride into the midst of all the fun!

Thank you for your interest in participating in the Crossroads First Fridays Food Truck Plaza located at 1907 Grand Blvd, Kansas City, MO 64108.

Crossroads First Fridays is one of Kansas City’s most well-attended monthly arts events, regularly welcoming 10,000+ visitors to the Crossroads Arts District each month. This year, we are opening Food Truck Plaza applications, as a curated part of the event, to provide visitors with a wide variety of high-quality local food options!

To keep the experience fresh for attendees and create opportunities for more vendors throughout the season, food trucks will be selected through a monthly curation process. We aim to maintain a balanced variety of cuisines and limit overlapping menu categories.

The Food Truck Plaza accommodates up to 20 food trucks per event.

Applications open on the 1st of the month prior to each event date and remain open until the 15th. Applications are reviewed on the 16th, and all applicants will receive a status update indicating whether they have been approved, waitlisted, or not selected.

2026 First Fridays Food Truck Dates
This application will open for the following Crossroads First Fridays events:

  • April First Friday
  • May First Friday
  • June First Friday
  • August First Friday
  • September First Friday
  • October First Friday

Please note:

This application is only for food trucks
Food stands, tents, and pop-up food booths are not permitted
No electricity is provided on site

Unless you are personally invited and hosted by a Crossroads gallery or business within the permitted festival boundary, you must complete this application to operate within the Food Truck Plaza.

⚠️Special Event Notice – Crossroads Night Market

Please note that July First Fridays will not operate under the standard First Fridays format in 2026.

Instead, the Crossroads district will host the Crossroads Night Market, a special multi-week event happening Thursday through Sunday each week from June 11 through July 12, alongside the FIFA Fan Festival at Liberty Memorial.

 

Due to the larger scale, expanded event schedule, and different operational logistics, food truck participation during this period will be managed through a separate Crossroads Night Market application.

Food trucks cannot apply for June 11 – July 12 dates through this First Fridays application.

A dedicated Night Market Food Truck Application will open soon, and vendors on this list will receive email updates with additional details and instructions on how to apply.

➡️ To be added to our Food Truck Contact List, please email hello@artgardenkc.org 😊
