Join Us for the World’s Biggest Fair Trade Dinner Party!

When: Saturday, May 10th 
Where: Flavors From Afar 5652 Hollywood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90028

Chicago Fair Trade and Fair Trade LA are teaming up for an unforgettable cross-city celebration this World Fair Trade Day—May 10, 2025! For the first time ever, our two cities will host a joint Fair Trade Dinner Party, spotlighting the farmers, makers, and brands behind the movement.

Over a shared meal, guests in both LA and Chicago will hear powerful stories, see behind-the-scenes footage from Fair Trade communities, and experience the real impact of ethical sourcing. Each course will be paired with visuals and voices from around the world—bringing the heart of Fair Trade to the dinner table.

As a supporter rooted in justice and sustainability, we’d love for you to be part of it. It’s a unique opportunity to connect with values-driven consumers in two of the country’s largest markets and show how your commitment to people and planet is shaping a better future.

Flavors from Afar will be hosting our dinner! This incredible social enterprise restaurant empowers refugee and immigrant chefs by celebrating their heritage through food—offering meaningful employment, cultural connection, and a taste of home with every dish.

Tickets will be posted soon.
