Dining & Picnicking
Savor the show your way—buy your food here or bring your own for a picnic on the terrace or in your seat.
Purchase your meal from Bodega at The Ford or local curated offerings in the Grab & Go Market. You can also bring your own food and drinks and grab a table on the Zev Terrace, the entryway gardens, or in your seats.
All food and drinks are allowed in the theater, and gates open 90 minutes before the show.
