One Chicken Fest! Community Festival in North Hollywood

One Chicken Fest is a planet-based community festival in taking place in the North Hollywood Park on Saturday, April 18, 10am-4pm.

Stop by the North Hollywood Park at the corner of Tujunga and Magnolia on Saturday, April 18th between the hours of 10 am to 4 pm to check out the first annual One Chicken Fest!

The idea behind the festival is that everyone, everywhere, can take just a small step in some part of their lives - their “one chicken” - which can make a difference in our community and our world. The festival was founded by husband and wife team Charles and Deirdre Wiley, local North Hollywood residents who wanted to bring together nonprofit groups, city organizations and sustainable, local, or otherwise eco-friendly businesses to help hatch positive change in the community.

FREE Entertainment

One Chicken Fest’s events corner, The Chicken Coop, will be giving free shows and demonstrations throughout the day showcasing local businesses and artists! The Soul Shack Yoga Studio will be giving free Yoga classes to open and close the festival. Also featuring entertainment from singer-songwriter Kris Angelis and soulful duo TwoWay Light.
