Touch-a-Truck Events in New Jersey

Climb aboard a fire truck, bomb van, excavator, helicopter and more

THE ASHLEY LAUREN FOUNDATION / Charlotte Joy Touch-a-Truck Festival

There’s something exciting about the kids seeing a gigantic truck or construction vehicle – and then being able to climb on it. These touch-a-truck events across New Jersey give kids the opportunity to see police cars, firetrucks, excavators, dump trucks and even helicopters and military jeeps up close.
