Amelia Island Cookout at the Ritz-Carlton: October 15 to 18, 2026

The Amelia Island Cookout takes over the Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island from October 15 through 18, 2026. It is an upscale food and drink weekend with visiting chefs, tastings, and dinners.

  • When: October 15 to 18, 2026
  • Where: The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island
  • Cost: Ticketed per event, premium pricing

What to expect

Name chefs cooking oceanfront, wine and spirits pairings, and events that sell out to a crowd that plans trips around this weekend. It is the opposite end of the spectrum from a food truck rally, and priced like it.

Before you go

Individual events ticket separately, and the marquee dinners go first. If you want the full weekend, watch for the schedule release and book lodging the same day.
