Fort Mason Weekly Food Truck Night

Fort Mason’s food truck night is back as a monthly waterfront market, with the next one set for Friday, April 24, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. (fortmason.org) Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture says the free event opened for the 2026 season on Friday, April 17, and will continue on monthly Fridays through December at its historic waterfront campus. The market is produced with Off the Grid, West Coast Craft, and Stern Grove Festival. (fortmason.org) Secret San Francisco reported last week that the revived Fort Mason Night Market includes more than 25 food trucks, craft vendors, and live music. Fort Mason’s event page describes it as all-ages and free to enter. (secretsanfrancisco.com) (fortmason.org) That marks a shift from the old weekly Friday-night food truck gathering that had been a Fort Mason fixture for years. In a 2024 explainer, Secret San Francisco said Off the Grid had run the Fort Mason event for almost 15 years and that thousands attended what it called California’s largest weekly food truck event. (secretsanfrancisco.com) The 2026 version is broader than a food-truck lineup. Fort Mason and event listings describe a night market format that adds shopping, family activities, and performances alongside the food and drinks. (fortmason.org) (sf.funcheap.com) Funcheap’s current listing says the market brings together more than 110 vendors across food, crafts, and other booths. Its listing also says the series runs from April through December on the Fort Mason waterfront. (sf.funcheap.com) Fort Mason’s calendar currently lists upcoming 2026 dates including May 22 and June 19 after the April kickoff. Secret San Francisco’s April events guide also points readers to the Fort Mason parking lot for the market. (fortmason.org) (secretsanfrancisco.com) For San Franciscans looking for the old Fort Mason Friday ritual, the answer in 2026 is a new schedule and a bigger footprint: one Friday night a month, at the same bayfront campus, with food trucks still at the center.
