The 6th Annual MAINopoly: Taste of Main Street event will take place on Sunday, May 26th from 1-6 p.m. at some of the street’s best food and beverage establishments to raise funds for Main Street’s annual Summer SOULstice festival. MAINopoly is a fun, interactive community event that mirrors the classic board game, and gives participants a culinary walking tour of Main Street’s finest restaurants, retail stores, cafes, ice cream spots, coffee shops and more.
Attendees will exchange fake “MAInopoly dollars” for food and beverage tastings at participating locations on their game board. Those who check off all of the locations on the “game board” and turn it in at the official after party will be entered to win a “Taste of Main Street” prize package with gift certificates to participating locations. This year’s participating locations include Ashland Hill, Astro Donuts & Fried Chicken, Birdcage, Blue Bottle Coffee, Brick and Mortar, Cowabunga Republic, Dhaba of India, Dolcenero Gelato, Enterprise Fish Co., Espresso Cielo, Finn McCools, LA Vecchia Cucina, Lula Cocina Mexicana, Manchego, Poke Ceviche, Poking Poke, Rick’s Tavern, Sweet Rose Creamery, The Anchor, Victorian and a Beer Garden at 2000 Main Events (formerly M Street Kitchen).
Restaurants will also be offering food and drink specials like $4 draft beers, $5 cocktails and $5 shots for those with the official wristband. Select retail locations such as 10 Women, Beau Greely Gallery, Bollman Hat Company, and Santa Monica Travel & Tourism will also be offering in-store activations and merchandise specials.
Other activities include a beer garden, “Go to Jail” VIP lounge (21+) with hosted beer, food, DJ, snacks, games and more. Attendees are encouraged to dress in “Monopoly”-inspired or patriotic attire.
