GastroFest is Jacksonville’s foremost food festival, showcasing the best tastes of the First Coast. This culinary celebration of the local food scene draws a wide audience from across Northeast Florida. We pride ourselves on highlighting a wide array of participants, including chefs, breweries, authors and more. This open fest has drawn 30,000 people to the Downtown area in the past.
GastroFest returns on March 23, 2019 at Friendship Fountain Park & MOSH! Food lovers of all ages are invited to join us on the Southbank of Jacksonville’s beautiful St. Johns River next to Friendship Fountain Park and the Museum of Science & History (MOSH).
