The What's Poppin' Blog: From Home Kitchen to Stadium Lights: Our Story

May 14, 2026Johnny Popcorn

Every great story starts somewhere—and for Planet Popcorn, it started at home.

Over 25 years ago in Orange County, Sharla began crafting popcorn with a simple goal: create something truly special using high-quality ingredients and a passion for great flavor. What started in a home kitchen has grown into something much bigger than we ever imagined.

Today, Planet Popcorn proudly serves over 20 stadiums, festivals, and events nationwide, bringing fresh, flavor-packed popcorn to some of the biggest stages in sports and entertainment. You’ll find us popping at events across the MLB, NHL, NFL, NASCAR, and NCAA—and we’re just as proud to ship directly to our customers across the U.S. through our website.

As a WBENC-certified Women’s Business Enterprise, we’ve stayed true to our roots while growing our reach. Our philosophy has never changed:
👉 deliver superior quality products and an exceptional customer experience every single time.

Every batch of popcorn is made fresh, using only the best ingredients, with a wide variety of flavors to choose from. Whether you’re grabbing a bag at a stadium, sharing with friends at a festival, or enjoying it at home, we want you to love not just the product—but the entire experience.

Because at Planet Popcorn, it’s more than just popcorn…
it’s a moment, a memory, and a little bit of magic in every bite.

And if you’re wondering why we say it’s “Out of This World”—just take one bite 🚀🍿
