Sunday, June 28, 2026

Event Time: 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM

Downtown Berkley on Robina Ave and Griffith Ave, just south of 12 Mile Road.

Vendor Eligibility

All food vendors must be fully licensed and permitted to prepare, serve, and sell food in the State of Michigan and Oakland County. Vendors must comply with all applicable health department regulations, fire codes, permits, and local ordinances.

To ensure a diverse and enjoyable experience for attendees, Berkley Pride maintains a balanced variety of food and beverage offerings. We will limit the number of vendors serving similar menu items.

 

Vendor Expectations

Food vendors are responsible for the following: 

• Providing their own food truck, tent, and display equipment
• Electricity and water are NOT available at this event
• Being fully operational for the entire event (1:00 PM – 5:00 PM) with no early breakdowns
• Removing set-up vehicles from the event area by 12:00 PM
• Cleaning their booth area after the event and vacating the street by 6:00 PM

Fire Safety Requirements

All food vendors must have appropriate fire safety equipment on site:

• A 2A:10-B-C fire extinguisher is required for all vendors
• Vendors using a deep fat fryer must also have a Class K fire extinguisher

The Berkley Fire Department will conduct safety inspections at 13:30 PM on the day of the event. Your food truck or booth must be fully set up and ready for inspection at that time.

 

Health Department Requirements

The Oakland County Health Department will contact food vendors closer to the event to review:

• Your planned menu
• Licensing status
• Any required documentation

Licensed Special Transitory Food Units (STFU) will need to complete an Intent to Serve form, which will be distributed prior to the event.
