2026 FOOD & WINE FESTIVAL

08/15/2026 05:00 PM - 10:00 PM PT

Description

It's time to rewind time and Party for A Purpose, Totally 80s style! 🎉

Step into a world of neon lights, leg warmers, big hair, and even bigger beats. We’re throwing it back to the decade of iconic pop hits, classic arcade games, and unforgettable fashion.

But this isn’t just a party, it’s a chance to make a difference. Every ticket, every donation, and every dance move helps support security, educational programming, saving the pollinators, preserving history, and so much more, at one of the most bodacious places in America. Together, we can turn an awesome night into a meaningful impact.

Preps, Jocks, Cheerleaders, Nerds, Punks, New Wavers, Metalheads, and Valley Girls are all welcome at Mt. Helix Park. So channel that inner MTV icon, Ferris Bueller, Breakfast Club, or Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and get ready for a totally tubular time. ðŸ•ºâœ¨
