The Green Festival is the biggest and most diverse green living festival in the United States. Every November since 2001, activists, environmentalists, and policymakers have gathered in San Francisco and Los Angeles for a weekend-long celebration of all things green and sustainable.
The Green Festival features a broad variety of activities ranging from presentations by the biggest names in the environmental movement to a Green Kids Zone full of hands-on activities. Events and activities at the Green Festival include film screenings by the Sierra Club, an organic food court and beer garden, vegan cooking demonstrations, and a Green Marketplace offering locally sourced sustainable goods and gifts. Whether you want to take a hatha yoga class or learn how to build an eco-friendly greenhouse for your own backyard, there’s something to satisfy all interests at the annual Green Festival.
In LA, the annual Green Festival takes places each year at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Test drive the latest green cars like the Focus Electric and C-MAX Energi to see where the sustainable future is headed or check out a presentation on urban agricultural activism in the city. Visit the Fair Trade Marketplace to stock up on ethically sourced gifts and goods or learn about how you can participate in the environmental revolution at presentations with titles like “Eco-Activism Goes Social”. Speakers at past Green Festival LA events have included Sharon Lawrence from NYPD Blue, Mallika Chopra, and Gustavo Arellano, the editor of OC Weekly.
Tickets to the Green Festival in Los Angeles are around $10 for daily admission. Weekend passes cost around $15, providing the best overall deal. After the Green Festival, enjoy a vegetarian dinner or organic cocktail at the restaurants and bars nearby in the city.
