They happened right at 9 pm and they were great at the beginning but super smokey towards the end. There's lots of vendors and food trucks and you can also check out the local vendors in their shops. We like to go to the bakery Colombia, & the Marketplace which is their food hall. Everything is very walkable in this area and it is quite festive. Fireworks are around the lake. People bring their chairs and their blankets.

This was my first year attending this delightful little celebration. It is held in Downtown Avalon…read morePark from 4pm-9pm. Initially, I thought that it would be a bust due to the rain, however, the rain only lasted about 20-30 minutes and then it was back to sunshine time. Once the sun was shining again, the streets began to quickly fill up with people out to enjoy the Holiday. The various vendors were lined up along Avalon Lake Drive and Avalon Park E. Blvd. The Avalon Town Park hosted live music in the amphitheater. In Founder's Square there was a split between a DJ and live music along with the excitement of the Gyro-x-treme ride. There was a decent number of food trucks and food stands to select from. Many of the prices ranged from $3-12. Also, there were plenty of samples and flyers being handed out. I tried a pineapple-mango smoothie, beef skirt steak with seasoned fried (Lahteeno), a cheese steak empanada, kettle corn and cake (Sweeter Than The Rest). All of it was pretty good, although if I ventured out for Lahteeno again, I would try something different. About 5 minutes to 9 pm. a short show of fireworks started at Avalon Lake and then promptly at 9 pm the main fireworks show began in the field (on Avalon Park W Blvd between Tanja King Blvd and Avalon Lake Dr). The show lasted about 20 minutes and ended with a great sparkling finale. Afterwards, all who were either not ready to go home or didn't want to be involved in the out-rushing traffic jam continued on with vendors that decided not to close up at 9 pm or headed over the the Mulberry Street Bar and Grill. Overall, it was a pretty cool experience and I would attend again.

I'm giving this place 4 stars overall for the vibe and for all the options however it is definitely…read morepricey for what you get. If you haven't come before, parking was $5. There's free parking across the street but it's a bit of a walk and we thought it was worth paying to save us from more walking in the heat. We do like supporting local shops/owners so for that, I think it's worth it. I also liked that it was clean, they had lots of tables with umbrellas and seating. Also there were a lot of enclosed trash cans which I appreciated so it didn't smell bad and there was always one close by to throw trash away. Drinks: 4 stars $10-15 lemonade, peach lemonade, watermelon lemonade Multiple trucks were selling lemonade which was great for how hot it was. I'm glad the cups were big because they are kind of pricey. Chicho's Fusion Cuisine: 4 stars $20, #2 Fried Egg Smash Burger My friend said it was good and he'd get it again Brazilian Grill: 4 stars $24 Picanha plate I didn't plan on getting Brazilian food when we went. But when we were walking around this guy gave samples and the steak tasted great. Even after looking at a few more aisles I couldn't stop thinking about the steak so went back and ordered it. Advice for surrounding trucks to give out samples! There were quite a few similar trucks but this was the only one of this cuisine that was busy. I think it could have used a salsa or some sort of sauce on the side and I wish the salad had tomato but aside from that it was still delicious and I'd order it again. Dubai chocolate strawberries: 5 stars $13, this was the best thing we got, worth the price and super yummy. If you don't like pistachio the chocolate and strawberries would also still be fire Brappin Crabs: 1 stars... We reallllllyyyyy wanted to like this place. We literally went looking through all the food trucks for this specific food item. First off, 2 eggrolls and fries were $30! It would be one thing if they were big but they weren't and they had no business being called chicken alfredo because it tasted NOTHING like chicken alfredo. It tasted like curry with Indian or Mediterranean seasoning on it. It wasn't bad but it wasn't what you would expect. Thinking about whether or not we want to give their boil a try or if we just need to move on.

Bad Service for sure he likes to run the traffic instead of cooking that is exactly what he gets paid. Yelling from inside the food truck where to park and how to park. He needs a valet service for sure. Then he starts arguing like a city commissioner or an old lady. Maybe he was mad at his boy friend or husband. I do not know but he needs to change his attitude and to start minding his own business. He growls like a lion inside a cage but does not get out of the cage. He needs to mind his own business to cook well and keep an eye on the food truck and roaches, the rest is not any of his business. That's a good at advise for the cooker. I am glad I did not get anything from them, God is good because I just saw in two other reviews a roach coming out of the food and another person was sick for days. Forget this place. Tacos made out of roach. What the heck!

I'm Dominican, so I approached this with the expectation this would remind me of the beef sandwich…read moreI grew up with along with the thick-cut tostones I so loved. But sadly, I was disappointed. The tostones werent naturally cut but rather the kind that are pre-frozen and when fried become as crunchy as the chips version. The chimi beef sandwich itself was very dry too. Mind you, I must avoid tomatoes & ketchup due to an allergy but they also didnt have any alternative condiments like the garlic sauce that Dominicans typically use with tostones. Overall, I was very disappointed and dont plan on returning. Not only was it below average in quality but it there wasnt anything else on the menu that motivated me to want to go back. The employees were nice, wore gloves, but no masks. Besides the customer service, the only I thing I can say I enjoyed was the water bottle I bought for $1.

This particular Monday I took my two year old with me for the Strawberry Festival. Since this was a special event there was definitely a bigger crowd than normal, but I was still able to easily find a parking spot in the dirt lot across from the market. My son wasn't able to enjoy the bounce house or the slide because there were a lot of big kids being rowdy. It was great that this was provided for the market but there wasn't anyone monitoring it so kids were pushing, climbing and falling all over the slide and bounce house. To be fair, this was free so I really couldn't complain. My son was however able to get a sword from the very nice man Roman making balloon animals which he loved. We wandered around and he got a very tasty strawberry cupcake which made his night. I love all the stands and the available merchants.

I found out about Authentic Empanada this year at VegFest. They had 3 different empanadas to choose from: Sweet potato, rice and beans, and spinach with vegan cheese. I opted for the spinach and vegan cheese. After I paid they immediately began forming the dough, stuffing it, and frying it up right there before my eyes so it was a visual treat as well as a delicious one. Everyone inside the tent was super nice, and the homemade sauces (one avocado, and the other a sweet habanero) blew my socks off. Super delicious, great service, what more can you ask for?
