Every February, the shores of South Beach transform into a vibrant hub of culinary excitement with the arrival of the South Beach Wine & Food Festival (SOBEWFF®). At the heart of this spectacular event is the Goya Foods’ Grand Tasting Village, a marquee experience that draws food enthusiasts from far and wide. The sheer scale and energy of the Grand Tasting Village, sponsored by Goya Foods, are truly captivating, making it an unmissable part of the festival.
This year, attendees are in for an even more sensational experience at the Grand Tasting Village. Imagine strolling along the beach, sampling exquisite dishes from thirty of South Florida’s most acclaimed restaurants, stretching from South Miami to Palm Beach. Complementing these culinary delights is a curated selection of fine wines and cocktails from Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits. Beyond the food and drink, the venue, spanning three city blocks, buzzes with live music, engaging brand activations from innovative sponsors, and gourmet products from a diverse array of exhibitors. The presence of renowned chefs and Food Network personalities adds another layer of excitement. These culinary stars will be showcasing their signature recipes at the interactive Publix Culinary Demonstrations, adding a dynamic element to the Goya Foods’ Grand Tasting Village.
As the day progresses, the energy elevates further with the iconic 3 to 5 on Ocean Drive event. This year, Groot Hospitality founder David Grutman is curating an unforgettable experience within the Goya Foods’ Grand Tasting Village. The courtyard will morph into a high-energy mini-music festival, headlined by chart-topping artists Flo Rida and DJ Irie. Prepare to dance to Flo Rida’s hits like “Low” and “Right Round,” creating an electrifying Sunday Funday atmosphere right on South Beach.
Amidst the festivities, don’t miss the chance to appreciate the breathtaking backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean bordering the Grand Tasting Village. It’s a stunning reminder that this culinary paradise, presented by Goya Foods, is a truly special experience.
