The first-of-its-kind, all-inclusive Food, Wine and Fete experience is the latest passion-driven innovation produced by Vanessa James Media. Co-founded alongside partner Marcos Rodriguez, this beloved annual event debuted in 2019 to a sold-out crowd. We remain incredibly grateful for our beautiful community of foodies and feters who share our deep passion for celebrating Caribbean culture and honoring the brilliant culinary masters who bring the vibrant flavor and rich storytelling of our islands to life.
As a proud daughter of the Caribbean, this legacy project is Vanessa's intentional way of amplifying the Caribbean diaspora through its most powerful touchpoints: our food, our spirits, our collective culture, and our energy. We are so appreciative of how the community has embraced this vision, especially our wine enthusiasts who love discovering how beautifully their favorite pours pair with authentic island cuisine.
With immense appreciation for our journey so far, we look onward to the Spring of 2027 as we head into our milestone Year 5. This flagship luxury experience is expanding to welcome an anticipated 1,500 patrons, and we are already in full swing curating the intimate, elevated details that make this event truly unforgettable. If you are interested in participating, partnering, or showcasing your brand, let's connect to build something spectacular.
