Grace Jamaican Jerk Festival returns to Miramar on November 10

The 22nd Annual Grace Jamaican Jerk Festival is set to sizzle on Sunday, November 10, 2024, from 1:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at Miramar Regional Park, located at 16801 Miramar Pkwy, Miramar, FL.

With South Florida being home to around 1.6 million Caribbean residents, this vibrant event is a celebration of the region’s rich cultural contributions, from music to food, and of course, the iconic jerk cuisine that’s become a beloved staple.

At this year’s festival, attendees can indulge in everything from juicy jerk chicken to flavorful jerk pork, alongside other Caribbean dishes that take your taste buds on a journey through the islands. Returning by popular demand, the Publix Culinary Stage will be hosted by Chef Irie Spice and feature a live cooking demo by Boston’s Chef Darian, who stars in a national GMC RAM TV campaign. The 2024 Celebrity Cook-Off will see Local 10’s Alexis Frazier and NBC-6’s Kris Anderson go head-to-head, while local celebrity chefs Alain Lemaire and Winston Williams will square off in a sizzling culinary showdown.

Festival organizers are pulling out all the stops this year with an expanded venue at Miramar Regional Park, offering more space for vendors, shorter wait times, and a broader variety of food and entertainment. Alongside tantalizing food offerings, there will be lively cultural presentations and family-friendly activities, making it an exciting day for all ages.
