Food Truck Valley, Cape Town: where is it now?

Food Truck Valley is a halaal weekend food truck market in Cape Town's northern suburbs. Many people still look for it at N1 City, but it has moved several times since it started there in 2023.

Current status

As of 2 October 2026, we could not find a confirmed venue for Food Truck Valley. Its most recent home was the Bellville Velodrome, and in late February 2026 it announced that it would no longer trade there, with new locations to be announced. Before you go, check its official Instagram or TikTok for the latest. Older listings online that still show N1 City or the Velodrome are out of date.
