I'm disables and some how I walked from Fourth St to Junk Food Alley. very disappointed that the Marketplace wasn't open on Thursday. How are those people supposed to make they're money on just the weekend!? My idea is to have a place for people to Drop off handicap people, then go find a place to park, and be able to pick them up at drop off point. we ended up getting picked up in the delivery lanes that were blocked off. Worked out well for us, but it needs to be for all!! I feel you're not accommodating the disabled and handicap people very well!

Wedged between Emma's Cookie Kitchen and Timmy's barbecue stand - and all the wafting greasiness…read morethat each Junk Food Alley vendor radiated - Mayor Tom Henry was pried away from his lemon shake-up Friday morning to commence the 43rd annual Fort Wayne Newspapers Three Rivers Festival. Snipping the red kickoff ribbon alongside festival workers and Executive Director Jack Hammer, Henry praised the yearly celebration as a transformative city staple. He recalled the festival's first run in 1969, when it was stationed along Columbia Street and mostly intended for business promotion. "Look what it has evolved to over the past 40 years - 500,000 people come into Fort Wayne every year and see what it has to offer," Henry said. He touted the nine-day event as helping "citizens rediscover Fort Wayne" who may take for granted the city's attractions. Now, the festival represents the intersection of proud heritage and forward-thinking development, Hammer added. He said selecting his most anticipated event is like choosing "which daughter I love more." Hammer eventually admitted RiverGames and International Village - two former offerings returning after brief hiatuses - will aid in breathing a "new life and new birth" into the usual lineup. For Henry, the lingering question had a more decisive response: He cited the Bed Race and the inventive methods teams employ to meet contest requirements as a personal delight. Of course, the mayor, who had to trade a fresh lemon shake-up and clamshell container of homemade sweets for the ribbon-cutting shears, also favors another festival essential. "We're standing at it - the nutritious food alley," Henry said. "This is always the fun place to be.

They blended nicely into the background so you could talk. However if you wanted to really pay attention and enjoy...then it was loud enough to do so. The food lines flowed quickly. The servers were well organized, efficient and friendly. The check out process was the same. It was nice to have the alcohol and dessert areas separated from the food to keep the food lines moving. The prices were very reasonable. The food was very consistent with other Greek restaurants I've been to. They have a nice variety of entrees and desserts. Whether you are a novice to Greek food or a native...the food was delicious! Come out to Headwaters Park and give Greekfest a try! It's a 44 year tradition in Fort Wayne!!

First time at this annual fall festival. This year they celebrated their 29th year!…read more We enjoyed the corny dogs and loaded butterfly chips. Lots of other great vendors like BBQ, classic burgers, tavern style food and beer on tap. We only stayed for 45minutes because it was raining and it was in the low 50's. They had 330 vendors from all over Michigan and Detroit area. I'm definitely looking forward to next year, as we will be more equipped and know what to expect. Highly recommend you next year in October. Check website for exact dates as they only have it for 2days.

Definitely worth the $2 entrance fee. Parking is free. The festival is always held the weekend…read moreafter Labor Day. It is in the area close to the covered bridge. There is something for everyone. Lots of great food, both fair type and that served up by local churches and organizations. There were even two places that sold ice cream made the old fashioned way. They each had fun setups that churned the ice cream. Sadly each time we went by they were making the ice cream and it wasn't ready. My husband loved seeing the large number of old tractors. On Saturday morning there is also a parade with the old tractors. There is live music and a field full of inflatables and horse rides for the kids. There is even a cornhole tournament where you can pay $10 for a team of two to compete. They also have rows of vendors selling all kinds of things. From clothes to shoes to honey and soap. I would definitely recommend you check it out. Fun way to get out with the family while supporting the local community. If you go from here to Matthews town you will find big rummage sales spread out all over town. And more fair type food being served up.

And of course a "pop up" gourmet hot dog stand. Also the downtown restraints will offer good lunches at discounts. Or keeping with the theme of a "free" event. You are also encouraged to "brown bag" it. You can't expect that much in the way of entertainment (it's free). But according to the DID's website. Expect a lunch with an exceptional "out of office" experience! Yelp: In keeping with your "user" review policies. I did eat a gourmet hot dog.
