FoodieLand — San Francisco Food Festival

FoodieLand is scheduled to return to the San Francisco area from May 22 to May 24, 2026, with a three-day outdoor food festival at the Cow Palace in Daly City, according to the event’s official website. The organizer lists the event as FoodieLand San Francisco and says the festival will run Friday from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 10 p.m. each day. The Cow Palace event page says tickets must be bought online before arrival and that no tickets will be sold at the door. A separate California festival guide lists FoodieLand among statewide festival listings but advises readers to confirm details with event organizers before traveling. ### Where is the festival actually being held? The Cow Palace, at 2600 Geneva Avenue in Daly City, is the listed venue for the 2026 event, according to both FoodieLand and the Cow Palace calendar. The Cow Palace page specifies the South Parking Lot as the event location. Daly City sits just south of San Francisco, making the event a Bay Area stop rather than a downtown San Francisco street fair. (foodielandnm.com) FoodieLand’s own event schedule lists San Francisco, California, with the Cow Palace as the venue for May 22-24, 2026. ### What can visitors expect once they get inside? FoodieLand’s website says the San Francisco event includes food and drink vendors, shopping areas and live performances, while the event map shows a long list of individual food sellers and menu items. (foodielandnm.com) The map page names vendors ranging from takoyaki and birria sellers to dessert, boba and barbecue stands. (foodielandnm.com) A third-party event listing describes the festival as featuring more than 200 vendors, along with artisan crafts, games and live music. Because that count appears on an outside listing rather than the organizer’s main city page, readers should treat the official FoodieLand lineup and map as the primary source for who is scheduled to appear. (foodielandnm.com) ### How much does it cost, and what are the entry rules? Parking is listed at $15 per vehicle on both the FoodieLand city page and the Cow Palace event page. FoodieLand also says children age 5 and under are admitted free. The organizer says there is no re-entry, meaning each ticket is for single-use entry only. The Cow Palace page also says guests may stay as long as they like once inside for the day, but tickets are non-refundable and sold only online in advance. (somo-app.com) ### What should visitors know before making the trip? FoodieLand says public transit and rideshare are encouraged, and the site lists service animals as the only animals allowed. (foodielandnm.com) The event FAQ also lists prohibited items including large bags, coolers, drones, weapons and pepper spray, while permitting smaller bags, strollers, umbrellas and to-go containers. The California festival guide that linked to the event says travelers should double-check dates and status through the organizer’s own links because festival schedules can change. That note is especially relevant for holiday weekend events that can draw large crowds or sell out. ### Where can people check the latest lineup and logistics? (foodielandnm.com) FoodieLand’s San Francisco city page links directly to the event lineup, map and ticketing information for the May 22-24 festival. The organizer’s broader 2026 event schedule also lists a later Bay Area stop in San Jose at the Santa Clara County Fairgrounds from June 26 to June 28, 2026. (festivalguidesandreviews.com) May 22 is the next key date for the San Francisco-area event, with gates scheduled to open at 3 p.m. on Friday at the Cow Palace in Daly City. Before then, visitors can use FoodieLand’s official city page and Cow Palace listing to confirm hours, parking, entry rules and any lineup updates. (foodielandnm.com)
