It’s rare to find a big collection of food trucks in Mississauga.

There are individual food trucks operating around the city that are popular with residents, without a doubt, but getting a whole bunch together in one location isn’t common.

However, on Saturday at Celebration Square, there will be more than 25 food trucks offering their unique takes on quick eats as part of the SoundBites festival.

A big part of the event is the Awestruck Food Truck Awards that will be handed out throughout the evening in various categories including Best Menu Item, Best New Truck and People’s Choice. The awards hosts will be James Cunningham, who stars on Food Network Canada’s Eat St., and Global News Toronto weekend meteorologist Ross Hull.

It’s a pretty diverse culinary lineup, including poutine, sushi burritos, crepes, grilled cheese, jerk and more. Some of last year’s winners, including Che Food Truck, Busters Sea Cove and the Food Dudes, will return this year to keep the crowd stuffed and sated.

“We’re going for a world market vibe,” said Nidhi Khanna, manager of Celebration Square. “This gives people an opportunity to move out of their comfort zone and try something new when it comes to food.”

But, there’s more to the event than just food. At 7:45 p.m., it’s hip hop, and the brave are invited to pick their favorite song and get up on the Celebration Square stage to perform for the crowd.

At 10 p.m., DJ Jazzy Jeff will spin an hour-long set. He’s best known as one half of the duo DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince with Will Smith.

Past editions of the festival have brought in acts including De La Soul and July Talk to perform for the crowd.

Khanna said she’s looking forward to DJ Jazzy Jeff bringing his “engaging and high energy” set to Mississauga.
