Street Food Cinema — Local services in Los Angeles

A perfectly organized and executed ENTERTAINMENT EXTRAVAGANZA! Try saying that 3 times fast... But seriously, Street Food Cinema is a well-oiled machine, from food trucks to music, comedy and film.

TICKETS: Available on the website (credit card) or at the door (cash only). If you email the producers, they may be able to arrange for a group discount for your entire group (rather than only groups of 4). Beware, advance ticket purchasers get priority access at 5:30pm, while at the door ticket purchasers get to go in at 5:45pm. So to secure the best spot, buy in advance!

FOOD + DRINKS: Bring your own EVERYTHING! Or, if you prefer, buy from the variety of food trucks available each night. The wait starts getting long around 7pm, so I'd get in line before then.

BLANKETS + CHAIRS: Segregation is the name of the game. Separate may not be equal, but it's to give everyone the best seat in the house, no matter where you're at! The chairs have a special section on the side, and the blankets can set up in the middle. The grass does get dewy at night, so bring a cheap plastic tablecloth to go under your blankets if you don't want them to get wet.

ENTERTAINMENT: There's a different band performing at around 7:30pm each night, followed by a guest interaction interlude (usually some type of contest), and then movie begins promptly at 8:30pm. There are speakers located throughout the entire park, so even if you're further from the front screen, you'll feel like you're right next to it.

RESTROOMS: Clean row of red porta potties in the back.

PARKING: $10 for parking in the Exposition Park lot, but street parking available on Figueroa if you're lucky.

DOGS: Allowed!

Summer Saturday nights, Exposition Park......

We did the movie and camping. Granted it was their first time doing the camping, so these were the things we felt they can improve on. . They need more potapotties, they kept them stocked with toilet paper, but there needed to be more for as many people as they had, Also, it was little unorganized at the beginning, no one seemed to know how to check anyone in. The picture was misleading on the website. It looks like you tented on grass, but it is actually dirt and dead weeds- they tried to flatten it down, but there were a lot of the branches sticking up which made it hard to put down your tent without popping a hole in it. Over all it was a good time, the movie was great, the band, the music and dancing, the midnight hike. We would probably do it again but not include the camping. Oh a tip- if your buying soda or waters, go to their little store it was half the price they were...

My very first outdoor picnic cinema! My friend Cristina found a groupon and organized a group outing here to watch the Monty Python. I never seen the movie and was looking forward to it...too bad I passed out a little after it started. Would love to do it again and stay awake lol.

What I loved so much food trucks the atmosphere live music picnic outdoor movie!!

Downside most of the trucks left when the movie started had to park a lil far movie didn't start right away because they interviewed the producer and played games ( I guess this isn't a bad thing...but I was getting sleepy)
