Carousel Village

Welcome to the 12th season of Food Truck Fridays! End your week at Providence’s original, award-winning, and favorite Friday night tradition! Each week features more than 15 local food trucks, live music, cold 21+ beverages, and plenty of family fun, produced by PVD Food Truck Events in partnership with Roger Williams Park Zoo & Carousel Village. Attendance is free! Tickets are not required – just pay for what you eat and drink.

What to Expect in 2026:
An ever-changing lineup of Rhode Island & New England’s best food trucks (cash, credit, & debit accepted)
Live music every week featuring over two dozen local musicians
Take a spin on the carousel or hop aboard the train (additional cost)
Explore Hasbro’s Boundless Playground
Grab a high-top table, bring chairs or blankets, or snag a picnic table and enjoy the lawn
Beer, wine, mocktails & more served by Good Vibes Beverages

Parking Pro Tip: Free and easy parking at the Zoo lot—it’s just a 7-minute walk to Carousel Village.

As the seasons begin to change, it's a great time to reconnect with the natural world and slow down. We're excited to partner with the @rwpbotanicalcenter to offer a free Forest Bathing (Shinrin Yoku) session on September 19 at 10 AM with Lee Ann. This guided experience invites you to breathe deeply, notice your surroundings, and open your senses to the sights, sounds, textures, and rhythms of the forest. 

Lee Ann Freitas is the director of the Botanical Center and a Certified Forest Therapist, horticulturist, and a hardcore advocate for all things nature. She creates a welcoming and peaceful environment for participants to slow down, connect with nature, and be present.

The session is free, but registration is limited – sign up online (link in bio)!
Our next episode of Swan Stories features Roz Raskin of the dreamy Providence-based band @novaone_! Roz shares some of their favorite memories spent at Roger Williams Park (including actual swan encounters!), the full-circle experience of writing and touring NOVA ONE’s latest album, “how to kiss”, building community around music, and more!
