The Chili Cook-Off is held at the grassy area at the foot of Newport (between Santa
Monica Ave and Newport).

To taste the array of chili samples you may purchase individual taste tickets at our ticket booth (2 servings for $1)  or you may purchase a Peoples Choice ticket for a sample of all the teams of chili for the single price of $10.

If the contestant booths run out of chili, never fear! Shades Oceanfront Bistro and Craves Cafe will also have a booth providing individual bowls of chili (both meat AND vegetarian!) for just $2 per bowl.

So come and sample and enjoy!

The line for the Cook-Off starts at 10am, and the tasting begins at 11am with the sound of the bullhorn.
