“TRIFECTA IS THE BEST FOOD TRUCK EVENT OF THE YEAR!”
– Dave Pulford, President of Maryland Mobile Food Truck Association

“All of the lines at the festival moved incredibly quick. I wasn’t in line for a particular truck for too long and I was able to sample food from a few different trucks.You had a great amount of tables for people to eat at which I loved – it makes eating and drinking and talking to my friends much easier. From Mexican, to Dessert, to Indian, and BBQ, Trifecta had a truck there to satisfy even the wildest of craving.”
– Rachel Lipton / Baltimore Food Blogger

“We were blown away by the size of the crowd and how much they consumed! We were so busy we had to bring in extra staff. Great job, 24-7, on promoting such a fun food & music festival!”
​- Dave Rather /Mother’s

“Trifecta had a plethora of quality food, top-notch live entertainment, cool vendors, creative art, and so many other opportunities to have a great time. We sure do!”
– Kelly Bell / Kelly Bell Band

“What a day we had! We could not have asked for better fans, music or hosts!”
– Drew Pumphreys / The Smoking Swine Food Truck

“Trifecta was a super duper awesome time. The Local Oyster crew shucked their faces off!…can’t wait to do it again!”
Nick Schauman / The Local Oyster

“I have done festivals all over the DMV and Trifecta holds the record for being the Best Festival of the year!”
