Fishers has canceled this year’s Touch-A-Truck event due to the threat of severe weather.

City officials announced the decision Monday, saying the event was being canceled “out of an abundance of caution” for guests, staff and vendors.

“Due to the risk for severe weather this afternoon, we have made the decision to cancel today’s Touch-A-Truck event,” the city said in its announcement.

The popular family event gives children and families a chance to see, touch and explore vehicles used by city departments and other organizations. It has become a favorite for many families in Fishers.

City officials acknowledged that many families were looking forward to the event, but said safety must come first.

“We know families were looking forward to this event, and we appreciate your understanding as safety remains our top priority,” the city said.

Fishers said the event will not be rescheduled this year. Touch-A-Truck is expected to return in 2027.

City officials are also urging residents to remain weather aware as severe weather remains a possibility this afternoon.
