@AbbotKinney1st: Food Trucks in Los Angeles – serving up #FirstFridays #1st Friday #1st Fridays

Abbot Kinney First Friday is back as of April 2022 after a long absence during Covid.  5-9pm on Abbot Kinney Blvd. in Venice, CA.

Yes, First Fridays is finally back on Abbot Kinney Boulevard  in Venice. You can enjoy about 20 food trucks that will be on the infamous Boulevard along with shopping.

If you’re wondering why it’s been such a long time since I’ve posted I’ll tell you why. First during covid the event was largely canceled there we did support it with  by using our Virtual First Fridays to make people aware of food trucks that were operating on Fridays.  Next as an independent blogger,  my blog does not derive income from the food trucks or scheduling them. I just want to be clear about that.

I started this blog in 2008, yes that was a while ago and it was created to help the businesses on Abbot Kinney after First Fridays started To attract more people to the event. Let’s face it it was just a handful of people and this blog help Skyrocket the event even before the row food trucks which happened in 2009.

Some of the merchants that benefitted from people coming to their businesses plus the merchants association that ended up scheduling the food trucks (a few years later) also gain income from this though never a thank you and actually complained that this blog bought them what they wanted more people in attendance at the event.

I got the blog going because people loved First Fridays and wanted to know more about it. it takes a lot of time and energy to do this on a regular basis and I’ve written a lot of articles about First Fridays and other food truck events in the area. You can find out about it by browsing the blog.  You can also find out about all the choice food truck events in the Los Angeles area in my food truck guide ebook that you can keep on your phone in your tablet.
