A Friday night tradition

Food Truck Friday brings the best of Madison's local food scene to the Garver Events patio every Friday evening from late May through early October. Grab dinner from rotating food trucks, enjoy live music from local artists, and settle in on the patio overlooking the Olbrich Park neighborhood.

The Garver Lounge bar is open during Food Truck Friday for craft cocktails, beer, and wine. No reservations needed — just show up and enjoy.
