2020 Event Cancelled Due to COVID-19 Outbreak
It is with a heavy heart that the City of Whitehall announces the cancellation of the upcoming Whitehall Food Truck & Fun Fest, scheduled for July 25, 2020. This decision is in line with Governor DeWine’s and the Ohio Department of Health’s current social distancing requirements and ban on large public gatherings, which have uncertain end dates.
This decision is also in keeping with the City's commitment to maintaining the safety of our community. In the coming months, our primary focus will be on maintaining critical life-safety operations, while simultaneously helping our residents and business community overcome the public health and economic impact of COVID-19.
Please know that the decision to cancel the 2020 event did not come lightly, as it has become a major summer-time staple in the Whitehall community, bringing over 30 food trucks, a dozen+ bands and an estimated 25,000 attendees.
The City is committed to bringing the event back in 2021 and thanks all partners, vendors and community members for your understanding during this difficult time. Please stay tuned for a Save the Date for the 2021 Food Truck & Fun Fest!
MESSAGE TO OUR VENDORS:
All food truck, marketplace and Artist Alley vendors who have applied for the 2020 Fest will receive a notification and full refund of their deposits. Any questions from vendors may be forwarded to communityaffairs@whitehall-oh.us.
