Hosted by the DC Department of Public Works, this free, family-friendly event invites kids to climb aboard big rigs while grown-ups get to test out equipment usually seen from a distance. The DC Department of Parks and Recreation will keep the energy high with interactive games and activities — including tennis, basketball, and fitness challenges.

On May 2, 2026, explore nearly 30 types of impressive vehicles from DC government agencies, like street sweepers, snowplows, dump trucks, police cruisers, fire engines, and even mobile medical units. This is your chance to hop inside, honk the horn, and learn about the tools that keep our city moving.

Thanks to the DC Free Summer Meals Program, youth under 18 can grab a free packed lunch to fuel their fun-filled day.

Join the fun in RFK Stadium’s Lot 8.
