Join in on October 1, 2026, for the return of the Taste of Carmel at the historic Carmel Mission
The bells are ringing, the flavors are calling — Taste of Carmel is back, and this year, we're throwing the most delicious party the Monterey Peninsula has ever seen.
A Night to Ignite Your Senses
Picture this: the sun-warmed adobe walls of one of California's most iconic landmarks glowing under string lights and the colors of celebration. Music floats through the courtyard. The scent of extraordinary food fills the air. And in every direction — something magnificent to taste.
This is Fiesta at the Mission.
More than 70 local restaurants, wineries, and craft beverage makers will bring their boldest, most inspired bites and pours to the historic grounds of the Carmel Mission — all in one luminous, flavor-filled evening. From the celebrated kitchens of Carmel-by-the-Sea to the acclaimed vintners of Monterey County, the full, breathtaking breadth of this region's culinary soul will be yours to explore.
One night. One legendary setting. Endless reasons to raise a glass.
