Hawaii Food & Wine Festival 2026

The Hawaii Food & Wine Festival (HFWF) is the Pacific’s premier culinary celebration, uniting 150+ global chefs, winemakers, and mixologists across three islands in a showcase of Hawai‘i’s vibrant culinary heritage and sustainable farming. Over 3 weeks in October–November, this festival offers unforgettable experiences—from gala dinners and grand tastings to family-friendly Mālama ʻĀina events, golf classics, and lively drag brunches.

In 2024, attendees generated $27.9M in publicity value and reached a record 14 billion+ media impressions, driving $26.5M in visitor spending and raising over $5M for Hawaiian culinary education, sustainability efforts, and local relief funds.

Brands partner to deepen audience connection through authentic activations, chef-curated experiences, sweepstakes, and media exposure—all while supporting culinary education and cultural preservation in Hawai‘i.
