# Westcoast Burger Pop-Ups In-N-Out Burger is Hosting a Pop-Up Cookout Truck in Metro Vancouver By Mary Van Puymbroeck | Published 2017-07-12 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/popup-cookout References: [dailyhive](http://dailyhive.com/vancouver/in-n-out-burger-vancouver-langley-2017) & [langleycruise-in](http://www.langleycruise-in.com/) Canadian fans of the southern California burger chain, In-N-Out, will be thrilled to learn it will be having a pop-up cookout in metro Vancouver. Every year, the 'Langley Good-Times Cruise-In' hosts a pop-up In-N-Out burger truck that delights Canadians with its famous burgers. Typically, the truck is accompanied by long line-ups and a limited menu that will only be available until supplies last. Instead of the iconic In-N-Out fries, this pop-up cookout will feature bagged chips so its famous 'Animals Fries' won't be available. Guests of the pop-up cookout can expect people to arrive to the site early to make a line for the In-N-Out Burger truck. The Langley Good-Times Cruise-In starts Saturday September 9th in Langley British Columbia. Proceeds from the pop-up goes to support Cruise-In charities. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 84% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Pop-up Food Trucks:** The rise of pop-up food trucks for popular restaurant chains is a disruptive innovation opportunity for the food industry, providing a means to expand and test new markets without incurring high overhead costs. - **Limited-time Menus:** Offering limited-time menus for pop-up food trucks creates a sense of exclusivity and urgency for consumers, leading to increased demand and potential for high profits. - **Charitable Partnerships:** Partnering with charities for pop-up events provides an opportunity for restaurants to promote their brand while also giving back to the community and building a positive image. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fast Food:** The fast food industry can benefit from pop-up events as a way to test new markets and reach new customers without the high costs of opening a permanent location. - **Event Planning:** The event planning industry can capitalize on the trend of pop-up food trucks by providing logistics and planning services for events and festivals that feature popular restaurant chains. - **Charitable Organizations:** Charitable organizations can benefit from partnering with popular restaurant chains for pop-up events, receiving a portion of the proceeds while also gaining exposure and support for their cause. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dog-Centric Summer Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pup-menu.md) - [Legacy-Honoring Burger Trucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookout-truck.md) - [Plant-Based Burger Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burger-pop-up.md) - [Artisanal Ice Cream Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artisanal-ice-cream-popup.md) - [Rapper-Branded QSR Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snoopadelic-shake.md) - [Revamped Airport Restaurant Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/white-spot1.md) - [Vegan QSR Canadian Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-qsr-canadian-expansions.md) - [Cowboy-Themed Dairy Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/county-fair-popup.md) - [Free Plant-Based Burgers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beyond-burgers.md)
