Terms & Conditions

Notice for Mobile Food Unit Applicants:

Per new Texas state law, all Mobile Food Units are now required to apply directly with the state and upload their state permit on Eventeny as part of the application process. Please note that having a state permit does not guarantee automatic approval - our team will still review and approve applications individually based on space availability and food variety needs for the event.
