Food Truck Association of Ireland president and Mexican Food Dudes co-owner Alan Woods stated that "Since we announced the festival, we have been getting mails and messages from all over the country and across Europe. From what I can gather, most hotels are pretty full with limited availability. It's the first year of the event and the buzz around the city is very good. There has been a lot of interest in it across the board."
Upwards of 40,000 people are expected to attend the event, which started yesterday (Thursday June 1) and will run until Monday (June 5) in the People's Park, Limerick, from at 11 am each day.
