The Malibu Chili Cook-Off® is back. September 4–7, 2026.
Labor Day Weekend.
Four days of award-winning chili, live performances on the new Dreamland Music Stage, carnival rides, world-class chili judges, a skate contest, local artists, and the kind of sunset that makes you wonder why you ever go anywhere else for Labor Day weekend.
The memories belong to all of us.
100% of net proceeds benefit Boys & Girls Club of Malibu - youth programs, mental health support, and the long-term disaster recovery of a community that has been through it and is coming back stronger. Your Labor Day weekend plans just got a purpose.
