Co-founder Justin Riley said he thinks the nearly 15,000-square-foot park at 2775 Valmont Road, which includes both indoor and outdoor spaces, will open at some point in the days following July 4th.

BOULDER, CO – After more than two years of planning and going back and forth with city permitting officials, the entrepreneurs behind a planned food truck park at 28th Street and Valmont Road say they’re finally going to open the first week in July.

In an interview Friday, Justin Riley, co-founder and CEO, also said that the venture, known to this point as Boulder Food Park, will rebrand with a new name and logo — to be announced next week.

Riley said he thinks the nearly 15,000-square-foot park at 2775 Valmont Road, which includes both indoor and outdoor spaces, will open at some point in the days following July 4th. From that point, it’ll operate from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. on Saturday and 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Sunday.

The site has 40 parking spaces but is also located near a multi-use path and many houses and apartments. Thus, Riley said hopefully in an interview Friday, reeling folks in shouldn’t be as difficult as the park’s distance from downtown might indicate.

“There’s a ton of traffic there,” he added. “People biking, walking, skating, pogo-sticking down this multi-use path. “So we see ourselves attracting a ton from there, as well as the surrounding community.”
