Truckin' Tuesdays (September 2026)

Welcome! We are excited to kickoff Truckin Tuesdays at Decatur Legacy Park! This is a favorite community event that happens every Tuesday in May and September from 5-8pm! We will have food vendors located in and around the South Lawn for locals to enjoy. We hope to see you there.

The main goal of this event is to foster a sense of community in Decatur through programs & events. In order to participate, we charge a nominal fee of $50 per event due no later than two weeks before the first Truckin' Tuesday date.

WHAT TO EXPECT: 

Truckin’ Tuesdays are a laid-back, community-focused event created to bring neighbors together and highlight local vendors. Attendance can vary, but we typically see anywhere from 100–200+ community members throughout the evening. This is a casual experience designed to offer vendors added exposure within the City of Decatur and an opportunity to connect with the community in a fun, approachable setting.
