Space Coast Food & Wine Festival
One of the Space Coast’s most anticipated culinary celebrations is back with a fresh new identity. Formerly the Downtown Melbourne Food & Wine Festival, the newly named Space Coast Food & Wine Festival will return to the Downtown Melbourne waterfront on Saturday, January 31, 2026, from 3 PM–6 PM, bringing together the region’s top chefs, favorite restaurants, craft beverage makers, and food lovers for an unforgettable afternoon on the water.
The new name reflects the festival’s expanded reach across the greater Space Coast while preserving its deep connection to Downtown Melbourne. Melbourne Main Street, the event’s longstanding benefactor, continues to steward the festival as part of its mission to enhance the vitality and visibility of the district. Guests will enjoy unlimited tastings from standout restaurants and beverage providers from across the Space Coast. The open-air experience will feature local flavors, waterfront views, and live entertainment woven throughout the afternoon. For an elevated experience, VIP Admission offers early entry at 2 PM, access to an exclusive lounge, reserved parking, and craft-cocktail bars featuring premium spirits and mixology.
Tickets are now on sale at spacecoastfoodandwine.com.
All attendees must be 21+; valid ID required. The event is rain or shine.
“We’re honored to continue this tradition under a name that reflects the entire Space Coast community,” said Kyle Smith of Elevate Event Productions. “Our goal is to preserve what made it special while creating an even more elevated, memorable experience.”
