DOWNTOWN — Chicago's food truck festivals have returned Downtown, now with regular stops off Michigan Avenue. 

Some of Chicago's finest food trucks will once again line up to sell their stuff on select days this summer (and fall) in Daley Plaza, 50 W. Washington St. for the city's Food Truck Fests. The season, which will last through October, kicked off last week. 

The trucks, which have parked at Willis Tower in the past, will also host monthly festivals on Wednesdays at Pioneer Court, 401 N. Michigan Ave. 

Angel Hawthorne, a spokesman for the city's department of business affairs and consumer protection, said the city sought a new, second location for the fests given Willis Tower's imminent, extensive renovations. 

Each festival will last from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Here is the schedule:
