Summer in Portland means live music, local art, and spending time downtown — and there’s no better place to grab lunch than University Station Food Carts.
This year, Pioneer Courthouse Square is once again hosting its popular Noon Tunes summer concert series every Tuesday and Thursday from June through July. The free lunchtime concerts feature live performances from Portland-area musicians and bring even more energy to downtown Portland during the workweek.
At the same time, visitors can also enjoy the free Art in the Park program, where community members are invited to participate in collaborative painting activities led by local artist Larry Yes. Art supplies are provided while they last, creating a fun and creative midday activity for coworkers, families, students, and anyone exploring downtown Portland.
Before or after the concerts, stop by University Station to experience some of the best food carts in downtown Portland. Located just minutes from Pioneer Courthouse Square, University Station offers a variety of local food carts serving tacos, noodles, sandwiches, mac bowls, comfort food favorites, and more.
With free live music, community art, and Portland’s iconic food cart culture all within walking distance, Tuesdays and Thursdays are quickly becoming some of the best days to enjoy downtown Portland this summer.
Whether you’re taking a lunch break, meeting friends downtown, or exploring the city’s summer events, University Station Food Carts is the perfect stop before or after Noon Tunes.
