Global Grill: An International BBQ Festival
Event Schedule
One grill, many cultures! Join us for a day of food, music, and community at Northridge Park.
Food is more than just something we share at the table. It is a way to celebrate culture, build community, and connect with one another. When neighbors come together to enjoy great food, music, and traditions, it strengthens the sense of belonging that makes Los Angeles such a special place to call home.
