Hosted by Tastemade, the Festival Will Transform Barker Hangar Into a Showcase of L.A.’s Global Flavors, Featuring Top Chefs, Immersive Tastings, and Artistic Food Experiences Nov. 7–9.
The Los Angeles Wine & Food Festival, hosted by Tastemade, will return to the Barker Hangar this November for a three-day celebration of the city’s diverse culinary scene, global flavors, and creative energy.
Running November 7–9, 2025, the event will showcase more than 100 chefs, vintners, and culinary artists from Los Angeles and beyond, offering guests a curated taste of what makes the region one of the world’s most dynamic food capitals. The festival will feature tasting events, immersive pop-ups, and food-centered art installations designed to highlight the intersection of cuisine, culture, and creativity.
Organizers describe this year’s festival as an immersive tribute to California’s food heritage — where local ingredients, global influences, and artistic expression merge under one roof. Barker Hangar will be transformed into a lively culinary playground filled with open kitchens, tasting stations, and live entertainment.
Headlining chefs include Antonia Lofaso, Brooke Williamson, Bryan and Michael Voltaggio, Michael Symon, Claudette Zepeda, Ludo Lefebvre, Stephanie Izard, Gabe Bertaccini, and Giorgio Rapicavoli, among others. They’ll be joined by dozens of acclaimed local chefs and restaurants such as Ronan, Jitlada, Amiga Amore, Bridgetown Roti, Evil Cooks, Carnitas El Momo, Ayara Thai, Ospi, Macheen, Lorenzo California, Sunday Gravy, Telefèric Barcelona, and Marelle Santa Monica, offering an expansive mix of global cuisines.
The festival will open with Friday Bite Club on November 7, a late-night tasting event featuring unlimited food and drinks, live performances, and interactive brand activations. VIP guests will have access to an exclusive lounge with special pours from more than 10 Napa Valley vintners.
Saturday Bite Club follows on November 8 with a new lineup of chefs and entertainment, continuing the same high-energy format of small bites, cocktails, and music.
The weekend concludes with Sunday Brunch Club on November 9, a daytime walk-around tasting inspired by Italian cuisine, pairing freshly made brunch dishes with sparkling cocktails and regional wines.
All events will take place at Barker Hangar, 3021 Airport Avenue, Suite 203, Santa Monica, CA.
