A huge FREE block party series is coming to Burnaby this weekend & here’s what to expect

In case you’re looking for another food truck fest this month, a huge block party series is coming to Burnaby – and the first event is this weekend! Presented by Grosvenor, this year’s Brentwood Block Party will completely transform Alpha Street in Burnaby into a 7.9-acre, six-tower mega event. In other words – expect big things!

Folks will be able to enjoy activities for all ages, including face painting, skateboarding, corn tosses, live music, and public art displays.

In terms of food, folks can expect to munch on tasty eats from a wide variety of local food truck vendors, including Munchu Picchu, KYU Grill, BeaverTails, Baba’s House, Crema Ice Cream, and much more.
