The vibrant flavors and rhythms of the Caribbean are set to enliven Miami’s Historic Virginia Key Beach Park this Saturday, May 17, as the annual Food, Wine & Fête festival makes its much-anticipated return. This all-inclusive event promises attendees a delightful culinary journey without ever leaving South Florida.
From 5 PM to 11 PM, guests can explore 'Foodie Avenue,' where local vendors will serve up authentic Caribbean dishes and handcrafted cocktails. Notable chefs such as Emmy Award winner Simeon Hall, Jr., along with Troy Tingling and Kimesha Chong, will be showcasing their culinary expertise through cooking demonstrations.
In addition to the mouthwatering food and drinks, festival-goers can enter to win exclusive Caribbean getaways offered by tourism partners. The evening will culminate with a spectacular drone show presented by LunaLite Drone Show Technologies, promising a dazzling finale to the festivities.
General admission grants access to all the excitement, while VIP tickets offer an elevated experience, including chef tastings, a private bar, and delightful swag. Co-founders Vanessa James and Marcos Rodriguez created this event in 2018 to celebrate their Caribbean heritage and the rich cultural tapestry of the islands, making it a true homage to the Caribbean spirit.
