On September 13th, the Family Style Food Festival 2025 took over Los Angeles State Historic Park, transforming it into a playground of food, fashion, and community. With globally celebrated artist and designer VERDY serving as Creative Director, the festival pushed its vision even further — blending the best of culinary excellence with streetwear culture and creative innovation.
A Feast for the City
The food lineup was nothing short of legendary. From cult favorites like Howlin’ Ray’s and Jon & Vinny’s to Michelin-starred stars such as Kato and Bell’s, every booth delivered a taste of LA’s vibrant culinary scene. The much-anticipated debut of Marathon Burger, honoring the legacy of Nipsey Hussle, brought heart, history, and flavor to the forefront.
VIP Experience
As a VIP guest, I was treated to exclusive access that made the festival feel even more special — from private lounges and crafted cocktails to tastings from top chefs available only in the VIP section. The energy in this space captured the spirit of Family Style: intimate, innovative, and unforgettable.
Culture Beyond the Plate
Family Style isn’t just about food — it’s about culture. VERDY’s creative direction infused the grounds with bold design and streetwear energy, while Jordan Brand brought an unforgettable moment with the exclusive release of the Jordan Fire Red 5’s. From sneaker drops to fashion fits, the event proved that food and style share the same cultural heartbeat.
Local Legends & Celebrity-Owned Brands
Another highlight was the celebration of celebrity-owned brands and local entrepreneurs who continue to shape LA’s identity. Their presence reminded us that food is not just nourishment — it’s storytelling, legacy, and community building.
