July 2016 Food Events in Los Angeles

Can’t believe it’s already July!  Starting with one big 3-day food festival at toward the beginning of the month and then four different food events happening the last weekend of the month, you should be able to find something that suits your fancy in July!

July 8-10, 2016 – LA Food Fest:  Rebranded from its original name, the LA Street Food Fest, this year makes a major expansion and changes to the event. Instead of one day at the Rose Bowl, LAFF takes place over three days at Exposition Park.  Participants include Button Mash (Starry Kitchen), El Coraloense, Howlin’ Ray’s, Knuckle & Claw, Ricebar, and more!  There’s a series of special chef-hosted Rose Garden events.  The usual unlimited-samples food festival experience has been dubbed the VIP Golden Hour, even though it includes 2 hours of access, while a more affordable a la carte general-admission MRKT option has been added.  Tickets range from $18 to $160+ depending on what experience you’re after.

 

July 15, 2016 – East LA Meets Napa World Tour:  This annual fundraiser benefitting AltaMed, a non-profit healthcare provider that supports underserved communities in Southern California is going global this year with celebrity international chefs including Ana Quincoces, Ingrid Hoffmann, Doreen Colondres, Katsuji Tanabe, Hamlet Garcia, and more.  Early Bird tickets are available for GA at $175; regular price is $200.  VIP access is $300.
