Feelin' Hungry?

North Florida is not short on talented chefs and restauranteurs who make our vibrant food scene what it is. Last year, our Fashion + Food Day featured dishes from local chefs and restaurants who served our attendees a variety of delicious bites. The menu included healthy and tasty bruschetta, fresh sushi, soulful Indian cuisine, and more. This year, we are scaling up and bringing even more to your senses!

 

The 2025 agenda will not only be a celebration of food, but  of art and music! Stay tuned for ticket information and for info on how to become one of our featured vendors.
