A Culinary Milestone: The San Diego Food + Wine Festival Returns for Its 20th Anniversary

Celebrating two decades of culinary excellence, the San Diego Food + Wine Festival is gearing up for its grand return from November 2-10. This year’s festival promises to offer a fresh look, new partnerships, and expanded programming. As one of the largest culinary events on the West Coast, the San Diego Food + Wine Festival brings together more than 11,000 food and wine enthusiasts from across the U.S. and Mexico. With its rich cross-border influences and a spotlight on the flavors of Southern California and beyond, the festival has become a magnet for culinary luminaries and foodies alike.

What started as a celebration of San Diego’s local talent has grown into a major platform that extends beyond entertainment. The 2024 event marks its 20th anniversary, and to commemorate this milestone, the event has partnered with two iconic organizations: the James Beard Foundation and Food Tank.
