LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Ahead of The Big Game, Sweetgreen is making a bold statement in San Francisco and inviting fans to see it for themselves, unveiling a larger-than-life “Here for the Bowl” activation in celebration of the launch of the brand’s newest catering format: the Build Your Own Sweetgreen Bar.

On Saturday, February 7, from 8am–2pm, Sweetgreen will touch down at the Ferry Building’s South Plaza during the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market, with a super-sized activation tied to the launch of its newest catering format. Rooted in the universal truth that “sometimes when you show up for an event, you’re really just there for the food,” the experience introduces - Here for the Bowl - Sweetgreen’s new campaign positioning catering at the center of modern gatherings.

The activation features bold on-site signage and a scannable QR code directing passersby to Sweetgreen’s catering platform, where they can explore and order the new Build Your Own Sweetgreen Bar. From 8 am - 11:55 am, visitors of the activation can also enter for a chance to win free Sweetgreen Catering up to $400 for their Big Game celebration on 2/8/26. Prize delivery limited to within 10 miles of Sweetgreen’s Folsom + Main store*.

“Catering doesn’t have to mean compromising on quality, convenience or choice,” said Zipporah Allen, Chief Commercial Officer at Sweetgreen. “With the Build Your Own Sweetgreen Bar, we’re rethinking how groups eat, offering a customizable experience built on real, nutrient-dense ingredients, intentionally sourced from farmers who share our values. Whether it’s game day or everyday celebrations, it’s food that brings people together and leaves everyone feeling good.”

A New Way to Cater: Build Your Own Sweetgreen Bar

Now available nationwide at select locations, the Build Your Own Sweetgreen Bar is Sweetgreen’s most flexible catering format to date. Designed for group occasions, each bar is served in increments of 10 to scale from 10 to 10,000 and allows hosts to mix and match bases, proteins, toppings and dressings, making it easy to accommodate a wide range of tastes and dietary preferences.

Each Sweetgreen Bar includes:

• Multiple bases (greens and grains)
• A choice of protein
• A variety of fresh toppings
• House-made dressings
• Optional upgrades including steak, salmon, and avocado
• Bread

The new format complements Sweetgreen’s existing catering menu of individual bowls and bundles, offering hosts more ways to feed a crowd — whether for game-day gatherings, team meetings, graduations or corporate events.

While the Big Game sets a cultural backdrop, Here for the Bowl is built to go far beyond game day. The campaign taps into a broader shift toward better-for-you options at social gatherings — proving that food can be both satisfying and feel good. Following the San Francisco activation, Sweetgreen will continue bringing the Build Your Own Sweetgreen Bar to life across owned, earned and social channels, highlighting real-world hosting moments and reinforcing the brand’s place in modern, culture-forward celebrations year-round.
