Yes Chef Food Fest

Yes Chef Food Fest takes over the Citi Field parking lots for one night - Wednesday, September 30, 2026, 3 to 10 PM - with more than 40 spots to eat at, live fire, a whole tuna broken down in front of you, and 17 free tastings all over the lot. This is the app you carry while you eat your way through it. WHAT'S ON, RIGHT NOW The TODAY tab watches the timetable for you. The card at the top says what is happening this minute, and rows cross themselves off as the night runs. THE LOT, HAND-DRAWN An illustrated plan of the whole lot, with every booth tappable, the main stage, the fire pit and the entrances, where you will actually find them. Filter by category and the matches light up. Want a list instead? One tap turns the same spots into rows. Turn on the location and the map draws a dot where you are standing. 17 FREE TASTINGS Black trompo tacos, banana bread, cannoli, caviar bumps, a pommes puree cone, matcha, Raising Cane's chicken fingers, Nespresso with Breads Bakery rugelach and more - served all day while supplies last, and Popup Bagel's bagel and schmear for the first 500 guests. Try as many as you can find - each one stamps your passport. YOUR CHEF'S PASSPORT Every one of the 34 food spots earns an ink stamp - press and hold at the booth and feel it land. No signal? The stamp is saved on your phone and sends itself later. Real border-stamp ink, scattered and overlapping across cream pages you swipe through, and a short video of your passport to share. Fill it in one night, and it stays on your account. KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Gates and times, the 7 train, the no-parking rule, clear bags, the cashless payment policy, what will not get through the gate. Answered before you leave the house. BUILT FOR A PARKING LOT Thousands of people on one cell tower is a bad place to wait for a spinner, so the lineup is kept on your phone the moment it loads. The timetable, the map and the menus are there on the first frame, signal or no signal. Optional notifications tell you when the free tastings come out and when the main-stage moments start - about ten across the whole night, never a stream. Free to use. No ads, no in-app purchases. Festival tickets are sold separately at yescheffoodfest.com.
