Japanese Food Expo returns to Los Angeles on November 14–15, 2025, transforming the Hilton Los Angeles/Universal City into a two-day celebration of cuisine and culture.
Held at 555 Universal Hollywood Drive, the event promises a curated journey through Japan’s culinary landscape—think savory bites, regional specialties, sake tastings, and cultural showcases—crafted to feel like a passport to Japan without leaving LA.
Organized by the Japanese Food Culture Association (JFCA), the expo gathers vendors from across Japan and the United States to spotlight premium ingredients, artisanal products, and the traditions that shape Japanese dining.
Expect more than some of the best food in Los Angeles: live music, immersive experiences, and a lively, community-forward atmosphere are part of the program. Additional details will be announced closer to the date.
