Welcome to the 2027 Festival

Welcome to the 2027 Key West Food & Wine Festival

The Key West Food & Wine Festival proudly welcomes you to a spectacular global journey across five continents: Europe, South Africa, North America, South America, and Oceania.

As the world’s premier wine-producing regions, their landscapes, heritage, and flavors will take center stage right here in paradise.

This year’s festival is driven by a simple philosophy:

the food, the stories, the culture, and the chefs who bring them to life.

The Narrative: Connected by Water

Our visual and emotional anchor for 2027 explores how the earth's vast waters do not divide us, but rather tie our global traditions together.

To bring this fluid, interconnected theme to life, our featured festival artist is Humberto Castro, curated in partnership with Alaen Ledesma from Fine Cuban Art to Collect. Hailing from Cuba, their evocative artwork beautifully captures how the oceans and waters seamlessly link our continents, cultures, and culinary histories.

Five Continents, Endless Diversity

Every dish served throughout the festival will directly reflect the country of origin of its matching pour. You will immerse yourself in the incredible diversity of global terroirs while discovering the deep cultural roots behind every bottle.

Europe:

Timeless, elegant traditions meeting Old World regional classics.

South Africa:

Bold, vibrant flavors shaped by rugged coastlines and rich heritage

North America:

Innovative, diverse culinary expressions from coast to coast.

South America:

Deeply expressive, sun-soaked varietals paired with passionate, fire-born flavors.

Oceania:

Wild, pristine, and untamed elements featuring clean coastal bounty and cool-climate mastery.

Your Passport to Inspiration

Our mission this year is to ensure you learn the deep-rooted histories of these regions from the master chefs and winemakers themselves.

We hope this immersive experience inspires you to pack your bags, book your next journey, and literally eat and drink your way through these beautiful countries.
