The festival is held at Baha Mar, a 1,000-acre development housing Grand Hyatt, SLS and Rosewood resorts, which combined include more than 2,300 rooms, more than 45 restaurants and lounges, more than 30 luxury retail outlets, the largest casino in the Caribbean, several golf courses, an ESPA Spa and the brand-new Baha Bay luxury water park.

Signature chef-hosted dinners held at five of Baha Mar’s most stunning venues on Saturday evening will tempt guests with the best Bahamian and international flavors. A two-day expo on Oct. 28 and 29 features live entertainment, onstage chef demos and Bahamian culture.
The Festival Weekend Pass provides access to all flagship events and experiences, as well as early access to more exclusive and intimate chef experiences. Attendees can also purchase a daily pass for that day’s events. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit the website.
