Los Angeles is rolling out the red carpet for a culinary celebration that pairs A-list glamour with seaside perfection. Mark your calendar for Saturday, June 13, 2026, because the inaugural "Hollywood on the Coast" Food & Wine festival is taking over the iconic Fairmont Miramar in Santa Monica. This is not a standard food festival. We are talking about an unforgettable coastal celebration of taste, talent, and creativity inspired by Hollywood’s vibrant culture. This is going to be some of the best food in Los Angeles!
Expect a crowd that feels like the biggest night out in the city. You will experience a dynamic tasting journey filled with bold, inventive dishes and an exceptional array of beverage offerings.
A Blockbuster Culinary Lineup
Acclaimed Host Chef Neal Fraser of Redbird LA is taking the helm to curate a tasting experience that reflects the sheer creativity of the Los Angeles dining landscape. You will enjoy unlimited bites from a star-studded lineup of top chefs, beloved local icons, and rising culinary stars.
The beverage program matches the food in star power. Sip and explore curated pours from eminent wineries, premier spirits, artisanal breweries, and top-tier non-alcoholic brands. Every station offers a chance to taste something extraordinary while mingling with the tastemakers who shape the city's food scene.
Cinematic Energy and Seaside Glamour
Hollywood on the Coast blends the magic of the movies with the laid-back luxury of Santa Monica. You will feel the energy the moment you step onto the stunning Fairmont Miramar property. Live entertainment, immersive activations, and cinematic moments create a vibrant atmosphere that keeps the night moving.
Grab your crew and explore photo-worthy experiences scattered across the venue. The evening delivers an exclusive, high-energy environment designed to engage a discerning crowd of food and wine lovers, entertainment industry leaders, and celebrities.
A Festival With Purpose
Beyond the star power and premium pours, this is a philanthropic event making a massive impact. Your ticket acts as a direct charitable donation that fuels programs making a real difference in the community.
