AP’s Cookout

Group of young men at a party, with DJ equipment and a person taking a photo.

With live DJ sets and a fresh take on classic dishes, AP’s Cookout brings the energy of a house party with the flavours to match. Good food, big tunes, and the kind of vibe that keeps you locked in

2024

It all started at Kevin’s house — we saw the kitchen, felt the vibe, and knew it had to happen. Mario’s passion for food and Alex’s love for music sparked a lightbulb moment: throw a party where flavour meets sound — and AP’s Cookout was born.
