On October 15, the Home Depot Center in Carson will become ground central for all things Foodie in the South Bay thanks to the inaugural South Bay Food Fest. This event is set to fill the stadium with more than 30 food trucks and some of the best restaurants in the area.

This is a ticketed event so, yes, you have to pay to get to everything but the folks behind this event are making it out to be a bargain. Here’s the scoop:

• General admission tickets are just $10 each (through TicketMaster)
• Entry gets you live entertainment, DJs, street performers, boutique shopping, and more
• Borrow someone’s kids and get a family pack of 4 tix for $30
• Ball out of control and for $40 get VIP treatment with early entry, private lounge access, and a T-Shirt your friends will envy
• Parking is free for everyone!

So keep Saturday, October 15 open. It’ll be full day of gourmet eats and hot entertainment right here in the South Bay!
