This fair does have rides , which looked pretty fun. The food was your typical fair food, everything we tried was ok. I appreciated the security at the front entrance checking people in. There was a good command presence, and they did a good job walking around making sure everything was on the up and up. There were plenty of tables and chairs to eat and enjoy the live entertainment. The crowd was having fun and the volunteers did a good job keeping everything running smoothly. It's always nice to support the local schools They have silent auction and hourly 50/50 raffles. The parking lot gets full rather quickly, so expect to look for street parking. All in all it was a fun outing

The amount of carnival games I almost non-existent for a fair, as there were only 6 games total for attendees to play. Definitely not enough variety for kids. And winning tickets which they needed to redeem for prizes that looked rather sad and definitely not even worth $1, even for 6+ tickets is just sad. A slightly positive in that most games were priced reasonably for current standards at $3-5 ea play. The lines for the rides were all very lengthy and doubt you could really get your money's worth from the unlimited ride wristband. Otherwise each ride would cost from $6 and up. The food selection was average though with plenty of varied options. While I do like to support the local community when I can, not sure I would attend this again next year with the decrease in carnival type atmosphere and seemingly more of a pocketbook stretcher to get any fun out of this fair.

There are tons of booths offering samples of reallllly delicious food. It was a little crowded at first but lines went by quickly. Fun music and people dancing... what a wonderful night to be outside with friends and a full belly! :) We parked in the public parking structures by the AMC plaza... which is basically where this event is held. There were plenty of parking (free!) when we got there around 7pm. Oh and not only do they provide plates..but there are also water stations along the way to fill your cups with water! cools! I can't wait for next year... my friends and I have already decided to make this an annual event!

A million thanks to Sarah A. for the pair of free Yelp tickets to this wonderful event!…read more It was a night of gluttony I won't soon forget. For actual food food, we gorged on Brazilian BBQ, thai, indian, sushi, burgers, and much, much more! For dessert, we had ice cream, tiramisu, cupcakes, pastries, and caramel apple slices (they were giving out WHOLE ones but started to run out...darn!) My favorite food vendors were Porto's and Haagen Dazs. I kept going back for more ice cream, and ended up getting three scoops of three different flavors. Mmm. I had a scoop of Half Baked from Ben and Jerry's too. And along with the Porto's desserts I ate, I took home a creme brulee, red velvet cupcake, and a hard candy apple. YES I AM A GREEDY, GREEDY LITTLE GIRL, muahaha! I was disappointed with Kabuki's offerings. And honestly, you know what a CPK pizza tastes like...I tended to stray away from the generic chains and tried some of the more "exotic" goodies that I wouldn't normally try. Portions are just the right size too, I think. You don't get TOO full before you've tried all you want to try. Then you can go back for seconds of the things you want. Yelp was awesome enough to also include tickets to the beer and wine garden, so the boyfriend enjoyed that. You get 5 samples of 4oz. cups of beers or wine. What I wish I had known beforehand: -You can get blue plastic plates at a table up front...it reduces waste and gives you more room to get more samples! But they ran out by the time I got there. -Parking is a *$#(%)*$ (but free!) -Gotta get the whole apples while you can -Take your time. I was running around and stressing out for the first 30 minutes thinking that the lines would take forever and then the vendors were going to run out of food...they won't, don't worry! So enjoy and TAKE YOUR TIME! Major props to the city of Burbank for putting this event on...I can't wait for next year's!! And I will be certain that the $20-30 ticket price (that goes to the Burbank YMCA) will be TOTALLY WORTH IT!

WEBSITE: http://www.downtown-burbank.org Click on Downtown Burbank Car Classic This car show stretches along six blocks of downtown Burbank along San Fernando Road between E.

They have various awards at 7:00 p.m. for various categories such as: Best in Show Most Unusual Vehicle Classic Award Jay Leno Award Best pre-1960 Vehicle Best post-1960 Vehicle Petersen Museum Preservation Pick David Benoit, international jazz pianist and composer, was scheduled to perform at 7:30 p.m. Parking: There are plenty of Public Parking Lots - I found a good one right near the intersection of E. Angeleno Avenue and S. 3rd Street. Olive is closed so head up E. Verdugo or E. Angeleno and turn left on Third. It seems like no one knows about this structure and it's free. Food: There are plenty of restaurants in this area, so you will have lots of options. Just look it up on Yelp and the world is your oyster. I would highly recommend checking out this car show next year. They have a lot of nice cars and entertainment. It's also close to Burbank Town Center Mall with all its shops and the AMC Movie Theater.

The event featured over 200 cars across 6 city blocks. San Fernando Blvd was closed from Magnolia to Angeleno. Pre-1974 sports cars, exotics, cruisers, and hot rods were displayed along the boulevard. At the red carpet area were vehicles that have been featured in films or television shows such as Batman, Mad Max, Back to the future, Grease, etc. Live music, chalk art, face painting, and several DJs really made this a terrific family event. Various vendor booths were also present to promote their commodities. Each booth gave away some goodies to the public. So what else can you ask for? Free event with free goodies with tons of fun, winner!

Pulled up curious. Left entertained…read more Burbank Village has that low-effort cool factor. On a regular day it's fine. Clean. Walkable. Easy to bounce around. But when the special events hit, that's when it locks in. Pop-ups. Live stuff. Random programming that makes it feel intentional instead of just a pass-through. You can feel the difference immediately. At night the vibe shifts. Lights on. Music bleeding through the walkways. Groups lingering. Couples circling. Everyone moving with no real rush. It gets packed, but not in a suffocating way. More like communal energy. You bump shoulders. You people-watch. You stay longer than planned. Parking is the wildcard. If you know, you know. If you don't, expect a few laps and some internal negotiations. Once you find a spot, though, it's out of mind fast. The night takes over. It's giving... neighborhood hang that wakes up after dark.

Dubbed "LA's premier outdoor movie, food truck, and live music event series", this annual summer-long traveling entertainment circus (since 2012) made its way across various iconic venues throughout Los Angeles with its unmistakeable 3 1/2-story tall inflatable high-definition screen deemed the "biggest of its kind on the West Coast". A self-contained event, you were allowed to bring your own chairs, food, etc.. Pet-friendly with water bowls and treats throughout the venue, they tied themselves to the non-profit organization Best Friends Animal Society Los Angeles and No Kill Los Angeles (NKLA) to help with pet adoption. Would this nostalgic return and revamped idea of the drive-in movie pull at my sentimental strings to return for more!? PURCHASE General Admission Ticket/Seat ($14.00 + fees) - Purchased online (priced higher at the door the day of the event), this was open seating, so first come-first served. Armed with a low chair (ABSOLUTELY NO TALL CHAIRS), blanket, cushion, and pillow to sit on just in case, I claimed an unobstructed spot center screen at the very top of the seating area. Tickets also gained access to food trucks and live pre-movie music performance. Below were other ticketing options (things brought were the same): 1. Fashionably Late Tickets ($21.00 + fees - online purchase only) offered a limited quantity of guaranteed open seating tickets in a reserved area at the front of the house that allowed you to arrive at any time (hopefully before the movie started!). 2. Kids 12 & Under Tickets (approx. $8.00 + fees) offered the same as "General Admission". 3. Groups of 10 or more had group rates available. Live Music - A four-piece male band from Jackson Hole, Wyoming named "WYO" played fun 80's alternative music that reminded me of Flesh For Lulu and The House Of Love from that decade which I was a fan of. With a minimal pre-recorded backtrack, I appreciated that they played their own instruments - true talent https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HdGGHe4SbGAcONOZA91WdQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Food Trucks - The Fix Burgers, Street Kitchen, Blast Ice Cream, Pickle & Pea, White Rabbit (see separate review), and more. All accepted credit cards https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Z-gG0HFJcXYyrSx6aJuREg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Vendors - 94.7 FM The Wave https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=UQ4CxzvIjjBsJYvg3kUrzw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, AT&T, and title sponsor Showtime (who gave away chairs!) were supporting partners who had giveaways. SERVICE The online purchase was a breeze. There was excellent pedestrian and street directional signage to the main entrance of The Autry Museum https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=YvykGmC-6ncXMnLX9JLRCg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Marked signs once inside led you where to set up camp, restroom area, etc.. Both audio and visual systems were surprisingly clean and clear. There were the customary long food truck lines akin to L.A. traffic without the bad drivers. There were no onsite ATM machines. Generally-speaking, everything was fine and ran smoothly. PARKING (FREE) Plenty of FREE parking at The Autry Museum and L.A. Zoo across the street. Another option would be to hire a driving service like a taxi, Lyft, or Uber, and there was a nearby bus station - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A large open-air grass field https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=QvLGVWZmAHmiCZLCNiFYLA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, it was everyone for themselves as the gates opened and throngs of guests flooded in! Designated smoking areas were in the parking lot or front of the museum. Upon entering, you passed the food trucks and sponsors area, then the lawn, and finally the porta-potties on both sides of the screen. The stage was at the foot of the screen, but wished they had a camera that projected the performance onto the screen. Exposed to the elements, you heard random sounds from conversations, dogs barking, and vehicle traffic, etc.. The aforementioned gigantic movie screen was your TV while DJ Carter and the live band provided the music. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Eat See Hear on the lawn of The Autry Museum was my favorite location because of its closeness to home, beautiful surroundings, and a ton of free parking. This concept was popular enough for others to imitate. The onsite staff were very charming and helpful. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $16.00; no tip required). And, they accepted my credit card of choice...AMEX! 5.0 STARS
