For nearly 50 years, the Liberty Hill Upton Sinclair Event has remained one of LA’s most beloved social justice gatherings, celebrating the local movement work that drives social change in Los Angeles.

This year’s Upton Sinclair Celebration, scheduled for Wednesday, April 30th, will transform the tradition to the next level with a brand new location, a fresh, fun vibe, and all the camaraderie and community spirit you’ve come to know and love from Liberty Hill.

The 2025 Upton Sinclair Celebration will be held at the Los Angeles Convention Center in the Petree Hall, a vibrant location that will serve as host for our reimagined event. Join us for special performances, exciting surprise guests, our signature “strolling dinner,” exhibits from community-based organizations and much more.
