What Not to Miss at This Year’s SOBEWFF

Masterfully guided tastings, high-energy after-parties, and can’t-miss beachfront blowouts, South Beach Wine and Food Festival’s signature experiences go far beyond the plate.

Whether you’re deep-diving into rare wines, dancing under Miami’s neon-lit skies, savoring iconic bites at flagship events, or connecting with the creators shaping today’s food culture, each series offers its own flavor of discovery.

Consider this your insider’s guide to the moments that define the Festival—bold, vibrant, and unmistakably Miami.

Wine Seminars

From bubbles to rare pours, the Wine Seminars are more than tastings — they’re education with personality. Whether you’re diving into Champagne with expert guidance, discovering the legacy of Roederer’s iconic cuvées, or uncorking natural wine revelations with Favia, this series delivers depth and discovery in every sip. Perfect for enthusiasts and curious palates alike, these sessions turn wine wisdom into one of the highlight experiences of the Festival.

Late-Night Parties

Think food festival by day, flavor playground by night. These late-night events bring a bold mix of taste, music, and energy to the Festival after dark. Dive into Naughty Bites, where adventurous dishes meet cheeky creativity, or settle into Eats & Beats, a celebration of Miami’s food scene spotlighting local favorites and late-night vibes. These are the after-sunset moments — equal parts indulgent and electric — you’ll still be talking about Monday morning.

Miami Beach Signature Events

The heart of SOBEWFF® comes to life in these signature experiences. From the sun-soaked energy of the Goya Foods’ Grand Tasting Village to cult favorites like Burger Bash, from the fiery excitement of Masters of Fire to the milestone BACARDÍ Closing Party, these flagship events capture everything that makes Miami Beach unforgettable — its energy, creativity, and joie de vivre. Whether you’re sampling world-class bites, raising a glass with fellow food lovers, or dancing under the stars, these are the essential moments that define the Festival.
 

Creator-Led Experiences

This is where conversation meets plate: elevated experiences shaped by voices that inspire. Dive into Chew On This: A Live Podcast Series presented by iHeartRadio, where storytellers and culinary icons share what matters most — food, culture, community — live and unfiltered. Then tap into FoodieCon presented by The Islands of The Bahamas, a celebration of today’s most influential content creators, their creativity, and their passion which fuels food culture today. These events spotlight the personalities bringing flavor narratives to life, in ways both tasty and thought-provoking.
