The cooks have returned to the shore!
Tickets for the 2024 South Beach Wine & Food Festival (SOBEWFF), which takes place in Miami from February 22–25, are now officially available. Several well-known celebrities, including Guy Fieri, Bobby Flay, Neil Patrick Harris, and David Burtka, are organizing more than 100 events.
The festival serves a worthy cause in addition to being a fun experience. The entire amount of ticket sales proceeds benefits Florida International University (FIU) and its students who are pursuing careers in the hospitality sector. More than $37 million has already been raised for FIU in previous years.
This year’s lineup includes some first-time appearances, such as Bobby’s Triple Threat, a live adaptation of host Bobby Flay’s Food Network program of the same name. The show’s giants, Tiffany Derry, Brooke Williamson, and Michael Voltaggio, who will also be present to host the celebration in South Beach, may potentially challenge the event winner.
Fieri’s Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives Live have also returned to the beach. All of Triple D’s restaurants participate in the walk-around sampling event. The previous year, Fieri poured tequila shots for attendees, leaped onto the stage, and enjoyed himself with his son Hunter.
“I love Florida. I love the people. I love the culture,” Fieri previously told PEOPLE.
Additional celebrities involved are Rev Run, Molly Baz, Scott Conant, and more. You can purchase tickets at sobewff.org. From Thursday, February 22 to Sunday, February 25, there are a multitude of events.
